• Abstract: In this paper, we propose Ahead-of-Time (AoT) P-Tuning, a novel parameter-efficient fine-tuning method for pre-trained Language Models (LMs) that adds input-dependent bias before each Transformer layer. We evaluate AoT P-Tuning on GLUE and SuperGLUE benchmarking datasets using RoBERTa and DeBERTa models, showing that it outperforms BitFit and is comparable or better than other baseline methods for efficient fine-tuning. Additionally, we assess the inference overhead of AoT P-Tuning and demonstrate that it introduces negligible overhead compared to established baseline methods. Our method enables multi-task inference with a single backbone LM, making it a practical solution for real-world applications.

  We try to push the understanding of different fine-tuning strategies for large language models (LLMs) We compare state-of-the-art methods like vanilla fine-tuning and Pattern-Based Fine-Tuning (PBFT) on pre-trained models across two datasets, COLA and MNLI. Our findings suggest that these alternative strategies can exhibit out-of-domain generalization comparable to that of vanilla FT and PBFT.

  Few-shot classification (FSC) entails learning novel classes given only a few examples per class after a pre-training (or meta-training) phase. Recent works have shown that simply fine-tuning a pre-trained Vision Transformer (ViT) on new test classes is a strong approach for FSC. Fine-tuning ViTs, however, is expensive in time, compute and storage. This has motivated the design of parameter efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods which fine-tune only a fraction of the Transformer's parameters.

  Few-shot in-context learning (ICL) incurs substantial computational, memory, and storage costs because it involves processing all of the training examples every time a prediction is made. parameter-efficient fine-tuning offers an alternative paradigm where a small set of parameters are trained to enable a model to perform the new task. In this paper, we rigorously compare few-shot ICL and parameter-efficient fine-tuning and demonstrate that the latter offers better accuracy as well as dramatically lower computational costs.

  As pre-trained models grow bigger, the fine-tuning process can be time-consuming and computationally expensive. We propose a framework for resource- and parameter-efficient fine-tuning by leveraging the sparsity prior in both weight updates and the final model weights. Our proposed framework, dubbed Dually Sparsity-Embedded Efficient Tuning (DSEE), aims to achieve two key objectives: (i) parameter efficient fine-tuning and (ii) resource-efficient inference.
