• Abstract summary: adapter tuning provides increased parameter efficiency compared to full-model fine-tuning. X-PEFT is a novel PEFT method that leverages a multitude of given adapters by fine-tuning an extremely small set of compact tensors for a new profile. We evaluate the performance of X-PEFT through LaMP and GLUE tasks and demonstrate that it either matches or surpasses the effectiveness of conventional adapter tuning.

• Abstract: Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) techniques, such as adapter tuning, aim to fine-tune a pre-trained language model (PLM) using a minimal number of parameters for a specific task or profile. Although adapter tuning provides increased parameter efficiency compared to full-model fine-tuning, it introduces a small set of additional parameters attached to a PLM for each profile. This can become problematic in practical applications with multiple profiles, particularly when a significant increase in the number of profiles linearly boosts the total number of additional parameters. To mitigate this issue, we introduce X-PEFT, a novel PEFT method that leverages a multitude of given adapters by fine-tuning an extremely small set of compact tensors for a new profile, which serve as binary masks to adaptively select the given adapters. To efficiently validate our proposed method, we implement it using a large number of trained or untrained (random) adapters. We evaluate the performance of X-PEFT through LaMP and GLUE tasks and demonstrate that it either matches or surpasses the effectiveness of conventional adapter tuning, despite reducing the memory requirements per profile by a factor of 10,000 compared to it.

  Pre-trained Language models (PLMs) have a huge amount of parameters, fine-tuning them is often expensive and time consuming. It is necessary to adopt a parameter-efficient approach to reduce parameters of PLMs in fine-tuning without compromising their performance in downstream tasks. In this paper, we design a novel adapter which only acts on self-attention outputs in PLMs.

  Fine-tuning large-scale pre-trained language models to downstream tasks require updating hundreds of millions of parameters.

We introduce a new mechanism to improve adapter capacity without increasing parameters or computational cost by two key techniques.
