用低秩适配器改进生成模型,让持续学习更准

LoRA-Loop: Closing the Synthetic Replay Cycle for Continual VLM Learning

  • 在冻结的Stable Diffusion中加低秩适配器,捕捉新任务特异性
  • 两阶段按置信度选样本,提升合成数据质量与知识保留
  • 可无缝接入现有流程,适合需要长期更新的视觉语言模型

视觉语言模型的持续学习通过合成回放取得显著进展,即利用Stable Diffusion生成样本以正则化微调并保持知识。然而,真实场景中的领域特异性与细粒度语义常被生成器忽略,导致合成样本错位,误导微调并损害知识保留。本文提出一种基于LoRA的合成回放框架,将任务特定的低秩适配器注入冻结的Stable Diffusion模型,高效捕捉每个新任务的视觉与语义特征。具体地,采用两阶段置信度采样:先根据微调后VLM置信度排序真实数据,聚焦于最具代表性样本进行LoRA微调;再生成合成样本,并再次按置信度筛选用于知识蒸馏。该方法可无缝集成至现有回放流程,仅需替换生成器即可提升回放保真度。在多领域任务增量学习(MTIL)基准上的大量实验表明,本方法优于以往合成回放技术,在可塑性、稳定性与零样本能力间达到最优平衡,验证了通过LoRA适配生成器在视觉语言模型持续学习中的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Continual learning for vision-language models has achieved remarkable performance through synthetic replay, where samples are generated using Stable Diffusion to regularize during finetuning and retain knowledge. However, real-world downstream applications often exhibit domain-specific nuances and fine-grained semantics not captured by generators, causing synthetic-replay methods to produce misaligned samples that misguide finetuning and undermine retention of prior knowledge. In this work, we propose a LoRA-enhanced synthetic-replay framework that injects task-specific low-rank adapters into a frozen Stable Diffusion model, efficiently capturing each new task's unique visual and semantic patterns. Specifically, we introduce a two-stage, confidence-based sample selection: we first rank real task data by post-finetuning VLM confidence to focus LoRA finetuning on the most representative examples, then generate synthetic samples and again select them by confidence for distillation. Our approach integrates seamlessly with existing replay pipelines-simply swap in the adapted generator to boost replay fidelity. Extensive experiments on the Multi-domain Task Incremental Learning (MTIL) benchmark show that our method outperforms previous synthetic-replay techniques, achieving an optimal balance among plasticity, stability, and zero-shot capability. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of generator adaptation via LoRA for robust continual learning in VLMs.
