The paper introduces a novel approach to improving the performance of large language, multimodal, and diffusion models called Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA). This method is computationally efficient and easy to implement, making it suitable for wide adoption. The authors first decompose LoRA’s weights into two subspaces and find that mixing them can enhance performance. To further explore this phenomenon, they develop a new approach called Mixture-of-Subspaces LoRA (MoSLoRA), which jointly learns the mixer with the original LoRA weights. MoSLoRA consistently outperforms LoRA on various tasks across different modalities, including commonsense reasoning and subject-driven text-to-image generation.

This paper introduces a new way to make big language models better. It’s called LoRA, which is short for Low-Rank Adaptation. The idea is to take the model’s weights (which are like special numbers that help it learn) and break them into smaller pieces. Then, you can mix these pieces together in different ways to make the model work even better. The paper shows that this approach can be used with many different types of models and tasks, and that it makes a big difference.
