• Abstract summary: We propose A graceful prompt framework for cross-modal transfer (Aurora) to overcome these challenges. Considering the redundancy in existing architectures, we first utilize the mode approximation to generate 0.1M trainable parameters to implement the multimodal prompt tuning. A thorough evaluation on six cross-modal benchmarks shows that it not only outperforms the state-of-the-art but even outperforms the full fine-tuning approach.

• Abstract: Driven by the progress of large-scale pre-training, parameter-efficient transfer learning has gained immense popularity across different subfields of Artificial Intelligence. The core is to adapt the model to downstream tasks with only a small set of parameters. Recently, researchers have leveraged such proven techniques in multimodal tasks and achieve promising results. However, two critical issues remain unresolved: how to further reduce the complexity with lightweight design and how to boost alignment between modalities under extremely low parameters. In this paper, we propose A graceful prompt framework for cross-modal transfer (Aurora) to overcome these challenges. Considering the redundancy in existing architectures, we first utilize the mode approximation to generate 0.1M trainable parameters to implement the multimodal prompt tuning, which explores the low intrinsic dimension with only 0.04% parameters of the pre-trained model. Then, for better modality alignment, we propose the Informative Context Enhancement and Gated Query Transformation module under extremely few parameters scenes. A thorough evaluation on six cross-modal benchmarks shows that it not only outperforms the state-of-the-art but even outperforms the full fine-tuning approach.

  We present an innovative approach to model fusion called zero-shot Sparse MIxture of Low-rank Experts (SMILE) construction.

• TIES-Merging: Resolving Interference When Merging Models [95.59265307318752]
  Transfer learning can confer significant advantages, including improved downstream performance, faster convergence, and better sample efficiency. Model merging has emerged as a solution to combine multiple task-specific models into a single model without performing additional training. Existing merging methods often ignore the interference between parameters of different models, resulting in large performance drops when merging multiple models. We propose TIES-Merging, which introduces three novel steps when merging models: resetting parameters that only changed a small amount during fine-tuning, resolving sign conflicts, and merging only the parameters that are in alignment with the final agreed-upon sign.
