Batch Editing

Batch editing techniques aim to efficiently modify multiple data instances simultaneously, improving speed and scalability compared to sequential processing. Current research focuses on adapting this approach to diverse applications, including image manipulation (using StyleGAN and diffusion models) and large language model (LLM) adjustments (employing Mixture of Experts and methods like ROME, MEMIT, and EMMET). These advancements are significant because they offer faster and more efficient ways to modify models and images, impacting fields ranging from computer vision to natural language processing. A key challenge remains optimizing batch size to balance efficiency and accuracy, with some research suggesting smaller, sequential batches may outperform larger ones in certain contexts.
