Task Specific Subspace

Task-specific subspaces represent a burgeoning area of research focusing on identifying and utilizing the minimal set of parameters within larger neural networks necessary for effective task performance. Current research explores techniques like low-rank adaptation (LoRA) and expandable subspace ensembles (EASE) to efficiently fine-tune pre-trained models for new tasks or languages, minimizing interference between them and reducing computational costs. This work is significant because it improves the efficiency and scalability of large language models and other deep learning systems, enabling faster training, reduced memory requirements, and enhanced continual learning capabilities.
