Low-Rank Adaptation, or LoRA, which freezes the pre- trained model weights and injects trainable rank decomposition matrices into each layer of the Transformer architecture, greatly reducing the number of trainable pa- rameters for downstream tasks. Compared to GPT-3 175B fine-tuned with Adam, LoRA can reduce the number of trainable parameters by 10,000 times and the GPU memory requirement by 3 times. LoRA performs on-par or better than fine- tuning in model quality on RoBERTa, DeBERTa, GPT-2, and GPT-3, despite hav- ing fewer trainable parameters, a higher training throughput, and, unlike adapters, no additional inference latency.
