Regarding Sparsity of LoRA fine-tuned model. #4

Closed Arnav0400 closed 3 months ago

Hello @pprp,

The lora fine-tuned models cannot be merged as the lora branch is dense. This makes the LoRA fine-tuning not very useful to regain performance lost during pruning. Please let me know if there is any sparse lora fine-tuning that you are employing.

For sparse lora-finetuning, you can refer to :
