This paper focuses on improving the accessibility of foundation models by reducing their computational requirements. Foundation models are typically resource-intensive, requiring significant inference time and memory. To address this challenge, the authors explore dimensionality reduction techniques to make these models more usable with limited resources. The goal is to enable users to run large pre-trained foundation models on standard GPUs without sacrificing performance. The study investigates classical methods like Principal Component Analysis alongside neural network-based adapters for reducing multivariate time series data while preserving key features. The results show up to a 10x speedup compared to the baseline model, with no performance degradation, and enable up to 4.5x more datasets to fit on a single GPU. This development paves the way for more user-friendly and scalable foundation models.

This paper is about making powerful AI models more accessible to everyone. Right now, these models need a lot of computer power and memory to work properly. The authors want to change this by finding ways to make them smaller and faster without losing their ability to perform well. They tested different methods to shrink the data while keeping the important parts intact. Their results show that they were able to speed up the model 10 times without losing its performance, and even fit more datasets on a single computer.
