## Abstract (arXiv)

This paper presents a novel methodology of fine-tuning for large language models-dynamic LoRA. Building from the standard Low-Rank Adaptation framework, this methodology further adds dynamic adaptation mechanisms to improve efficiency and performance. The key contribution of dynamic LoRA lies within its adaptive weight allocation mechanism coupled with an input feature-based adaptive strategy. These enhancements allow for a more precise fine-tuning process that is more tailored to specific tasks. Traditional LoRA methods use static adapter settings, not considering the different importance of model layers. In contrast, dynamic LoRA introduces a mechanism that dynamically evaluates the layer's importance during fine-tuning. This evaluation enables the reallocation of adapter parameters to fit the unique demands of each individual task, which leads to better optimization results. Another gain in flexibility arises from the consideration of the input feature distribution, which helps the model generalize better when faced with complicated and diverse datasets. The joint approach boosts not only the performance over each single task but also the generalization ability of the model. The efficiency of the dynamic LoRA was validated in experiments on benchmark datasets, such as GLUE, with surprising results. More specifically, this method achieved 88.1% accuracy with an F1-score of 87.3%. Noticeably, these improvements were made at a slight increase in computational costs: only 0.1% more resources than standard LoRA. This balance between performance and efficiency positions dynamic LoRA as a practical, scalable solution for fine-tuning LLMs, especially in resource-constrained scenarios. To take it a step further, its adaptability makes it a promising foundation for much more advanced applications, including multimodal tasks.
