A novel approach to efficient fine-tuning of large pre-trained models, called SARA (Singular-Value Based Adaptive Low-Rank Adaption), is proposed. This method leverages Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) to adaptively determine the rank values for different layers in a model, replacing the need for manual verification. The paper also introduces Mo-SARA (Mixture-of-SARA), which further reduces parameters by fine-tuning multiple parallel sets of singular values controlled by a router. Extensive experiments demonstrate the simplicity and efficiency of SARA and Mo-SARA in various complex tasks.

Singular-Value Based Adaptive Low-Rank Adaption is a new way to make big AI models smaller. It uses math to figure out which parts of the model are most important, so it can focus on those areas. This helps the model learn faster and be more efficient. The method also combines multiple sets of values to control what’s learned. Tests show this approach works well for many complex tasks.
