Researchers at Stanford University Propose ExPLoRA: A Highly Effective AI Technique to Improve Transfer Learning of Pre-Trained Vision Transformers (ViTs) Under Domain Shifts

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods, like low-rank adaptation (LoRA), allow large pre-trained foundation models to be adapted to downstream tasks using a small percentage (0.1%-10%) of the original trainable weights. A less explored area of PEFT is extending the pre-training phase without supervised labels—specifically, adapting foundation models to new domains using efficient self-supervised pre-training. While traditional…
