用奇异值分解合并多个模型,高效提升迁移学习精度与速度
Efficient Multi-Source Knowledge Transfer by Model Merging
- 通过SVD分解模型为基本分量,实现细粒度知识提取
- 仅保留最显著分量,支持大规模模型高效聚合
- 仅微调主奇异值,适合快速适配新任务
尽管迁移学习有效,但常忽略在线大量模型带来的知识潜力。解决多源迁移学习问题可提升适应性并降低重训练成本。然而现有方法仍粗粒度:缺乏精细知识提取的精度,也难以扩展至大量或高参数量模型。本文利用奇异值分解(SVD)将每个源模型分解为基本的秩一分量,再通过选择所有源中最具代表性的分量来实现知识聚合,克服效率与精度瓶颈。为更好保留和利用合成知识库,方法仅微调合并矩阵的主奇异值,重新校准关键SVD分量的重要性。该框架在视觉与语言领域均实现高效、可扩展的多源迁移学习,且对输入空间和参数空间扰动具有鲁棒性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
While transfer learning is an effective strategy, it often overlooks the opportunity to leverage knowledge from numerous available models online. Addressing this multi-source transfer learning problem is a promising path to boost adaptability and cut re-training costs. However, existing methods remain inherently coarse-grained: they lack the precision needed for fine-grained knowledge extraction as well as the scalability required to aggregate knowledge from either large numbers of source models or models with high parameter counts. We address these limitations by leveraging Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) to first decompose each source model into its elementary, rank-one components. A subsequent aggregation stage then selects only the most salient components from all sources, thereby overcoming the previous efficiency and precision limitations. To best preserve and leverage the synthesized knowledge base, our method adapts to the target task by fine-tuning only the principal singular values of the merged matrix. In essence, this process recalibrates the importance of top SVD components. The proposed framework allows for efficient and scalable multi-source transfer learning in both vision and language domains, while remaining robust to perturbations in both the input space and the parameter space.
