S2FT: Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning in Sparse Spectrum Domain

Parameter Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) is a key technique for adapting a large pretrained model to downstream tasks by fine-tuning only a small number of parameters. Recent methods based on Fourier transforms have further reduced the fine-tuned parameters scale by only fine-tuning a few spectral coefficients. Its basic assumption is that the weight change δW is a spatial-domain matrix with a sparse spectrum. However, in this paper, we observe that the spectrum of weight change is not sparse, but instead distributed like power-uniform. This fact implies that fine-tuning only a few spectral coefficients is insufficient to accurately model the weight change with uniform spectrum. To address this issue, we propose to seek an invertible transformation that can transform a latent spatial-domain matrix with sparse spectrum to the weight change, and then perform PEFT on such sparse spectrum domain with few spectral coefficients, called S2FT. To seek such transformation, we first pre-estimate a coarse weight change as a prior. Then, inspired by that sparse spectrum often correspond to locally smooth spatial structures, we regard this transformation as a row and column rearrangement operation on the pre-estimated weight change that smooth spatial structures while keep the structure information of neurons. Finally, we propose to solve the rearrangement search problem in a simple nearest neighbor search manner, thereby obtaining the invertible transformation. Extensive results show our S2FT achieves superior performance by only using 0.08% training parameters.

MetaDiff: Meta-Learning with Conditional Diffusion for Few-Shot Learning

Equipping a deep model the abaility of few-shot learning, i.e., learning quickly from only few examples, is a core challenge for artificial intelligence. Gradient-based meta-learning approaches effectively address the challenge by learning how to learn novel tasks. Its key idea is learning a deep model in a bi-level optimization manner, where the outer-loop process learns a shared gradient descent algorithm (i.e., its hyperparameters), while the inner-loop process leverage it to optimize a task-specific model by using only few labeled data. Although these existing methods have shown superior performance, the outer-loop process requires calculating second-order derivatives along the inner optimization path, which imposes considerable memory burdens and the risk of vanishing gradients. Drawing inspiration from recent progress of diffusion models, we find that the inner-loop gradient descent process can be actually viewed as a reverse process (i.e., denoising) of diffusion where the target of denoising is model weights but the origin data. Based on this fact, in this paper, we propose to model the gradient descent optimizer as a diffusion model and then present a novel task-conditional diffusion-based meta-learning, called MetaDiff, that effectively models the optimization process of model weights from Gaussion noises to target weights in a denoising manner. Thanks to the training efficiency of diffusion models, our MetaDiff do not need to differentiate through the inner-loop path such that the memory burdens and the risk of vanishing gradients can be effectvely alleviated. Experiment results show that our MetaDiff outperforms the state-of-the-art gradient-based meta-learning family in few-shot learning tasks.

Inter-sequence Enhanced Framework for Personalized Sequential Recommendation

Modeling the sequential correlation of users' historical interactions is essential in sequential recommendation. However, the majority of the approaches mainly focus on modeling the \emph{intra-sequence} item correlation within each individual sequence but neglect the \emph{inter-sequence} item correlation across different user interaction sequences. Though several studies have been aware of this issue, their method is either simple or implicit. To make better use of such information, we propose an inter-sequence enhanced framework for the Sequential Recommendation (ISSR). In ISSR, both inter-sequence and intra-sequence item correlation are considered. Firstly, we equip graph neural networks in the inter-sequence correlation encoder to capture the high-order item correlation from the user-item bipartite graph and the item-item graph. Then, based on the inter-sequence correlation encoder, we build GRU network and attention network in the intra-sequence correlation encoder to model the item sequential correlation within each individual sequence and temporal dynamics for predicting users' preferences over candidate items. Additionally, we conduct extensive experiments on three real-world datasets. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of ISSR over many state-of-the-art methods and the effectiveness of the inter-sequence correlation encoder.
