• Abstract: Recently, the scale of transformers has grown rapidly, which introduces considerable challenges in terms of training overhead and inference efficiency in the scope of task adaptation. Existing works, namely Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) and model compression, have separately investigated the challenges. However, PEFT cannot guarantee the inference efficiency of the original backbone, especially for large-scale models. Model compression requires significant training costs for structure searching and re-training. Consequently, a simple combination of them cannot guarantee accomplishing both training efficiency and inference efficiency with minimal costs. In this paper, we propose a novel Parallel Yielding Re-Activation (PYRA) method for such a challenge of training-inference efficient task adaptation. PYRA first utilizes parallel yielding adaptive weights to comprehensively perceive the data distribution in downstream tasks. A re-activation strategy for token modulation is then applied for tokens to be merged, leading to calibrated token features. Extensive experiments demonstrate that PYRA outperforms all competing methods under both low compression rate and high compression rate, demonstrating its effectiveness and superiority in maintaining both training efficiency and inference efficiency for large-scale foundation models.

  Fine-tuning Large Language Models (LLMs) has become a crucial technique for adapting pre-trained models to downstream tasks.

We propose eXtreme Gradient Boosting LoRA, a novel framework that bridges this gap by leveraging the power of ensemble learning.

  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.
