• Abstract: Fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) aims to adapt pre-trained models to specific tasks using relatively small and domain-specific datasets. Among Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) methods, Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) stands out by matching the performance of full fine-tuning while avoiding additional inference latency. In this paper, we propose a novel PEFT method that incorporates the TLoRA+ optimizer into the weight matrices of pre-trained models. The proposed approach not only preserves the efficiency of low-rank adaptation but also further enhances performance without significantly increasing computational cost. We conduct experiments on the GLUE benchmark across diverse model architectures. Numerical experiments consistently demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of our proposed method.

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