LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation)
A parameter-efficient fine-tuning method that trains a small set of adapter weights instead of modifying the full model.
In depth
A parameter-efficient fine-tuning method that trains a small set of adapter weights instead of modifying the full model. LoRA makes fine-tuning practical on consumer hardware and is widely used in the open-source model community for creating specialized model variants.
