The proposed prompt tuning framework aims to upgrade a model’s generalization potential by learning from sequentially delivered domains without requiring massive computation resources. The approach reuses existing model parameters and attaches lightweight trainable prompts for customized tuning in each domain. Domain-specific prompts are used to investigate distinctive characteristics, while a shared domain-invariant prompt explores common content embedding throughout time. A graph with existing prompts is constructed to guide the domain-invariant prompt’s exploration of overlapped latent embeddings among all domains, leading to more domain-generic representations.

A recent paper has made progress in classifying histopathology images. The researchers propose a new way to improve their model by learning from different types of images without needing too many computer resources. They reuse the old model’s parameters and add small, trainable pieces that help the model learn about each type of image. Each type of image gets its own special prompt, which helps the model understand what makes it unique. The prompts are stored in a special bank to prevent the model from forgetting what it learned earlier. The researchers also use a shared prompt that changes over time to help the model become better at generalizing. They tested their approach on two types of images and found that it works well and uses less memory than other methods.
