Efficient Model Adaptation

Efficient model adaptation focuses on modifying pre-trained large models (like Vision Transformers and Large Language Models) for specific tasks while minimizing computational cost and memory usage. Current research emphasizes techniques like low-rank adaptation (LoRA), sparse parameter updates, and modular model architectures, often incorporating strategies such as knowledge distillation and prompt tuning to improve efficiency and performance. These advancements are crucial for deploying advanced AI models on resource-constrained devices and accelerating the development of adaptable AI systems across various applications, including robotics, autonomous driving, and natural language processing.
