| Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) | LoRA, QLoRA, AdaLoRA | 2021 - 2023 | read whyFine-tune technique that do not require full model finetuning. The idea behind LoRA is that fine-tuning a foundation model on a downstream task does not require updating all of its parameters. There is a low-dimension matrix that can represent the space of the downstream task with very high accuracy. |
