TerMeZO: Ternary Sparse Zeroth-Order Optimization for Fine-tuning BitNet Models at the Edge
Houssem Sifaou, Prabodh Katti, Bipin Rajendran +1
Fine-tuning anguage models (LLMs) with first-order optimizers requires a memory several times larger than that required for inference. Memory-efficient zeroth-order optimization (M…

Event-triggered Implicit Perturbation for Zeroth-Order Fine-Tuning of Spiking Transformers
Tengteng Lei, Prabodh Katti, Rashi Dutt +5
Zeroth-order (ZO) optimization estimates gradients using only forward-pass evaluations, making it suitable for fine-tuning non-differentiable, event-driven spiking neural networks…
