边缘设备上高效微调大模型，仅更新不到0.1%参数仍保持性能。

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success in various tasks, such as decision-making, reasoning, and question answering. They have been widely used in edge devices. However, fine-tuning LLMs to specific tasks at the edge is challenging due to the high computational cost and the limited storage and energy resources at the edge. To address this issue, we propose TaskEdge, a task-aware parameter-efficient fine-tuning framework at the edge, which allocates the most effective parameters to the target task and only updates the task-specific parameters. Specifically, we first design a parameter importance calculation criterion that incorporates both weights and input activations into the computation of weight importance. Then, we propose a model-agnostic task-specific parameter allocation algorithm to ensure that task-specific parameters are distributed evenly across the model, rather than being concentrated in specific regions. In doing so, TaskEdge can significantly reduce the computational cost and memory usage while maintaining performance on the target downstream tasks by updating less than 0.1\% of the parameters. In addition, TaskEdge can be easily integrated with structured sparsity to enable acceleration by NVIDIA's specialized sparse tensor cores, and it can be seamlessly integrated with LoRA to enable efficient sparse low-rank adaptation. Extensive experiments on various tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of TaskEdge.
