Is the trick of initializing with real tokens the secret to making all prefix tuning approaches competitive? BTW @EyubogluSabri I don't see DoRA mentioned in your paper – I wonder if that would close the gap a bit?

LoRA vs DoRA vs Prefix Tuning: Fine-tuning Method Effectiveness
By
–
The big open question for me is why LoRA (and particularly DoRA) has been the most successful for fine-tuning, but it worked so badly for this use case. Or maybe the opposite – why did prefix tuning work so well?

KerasHub: 70+ Pretrained Models Supporting JAX, TF, PyTorch
By
–
KerasHub is a collection of over 70 popular pretrained model architectures — LLMs, VLMs, image generation models, etc — that work with JAX, TF, PyTorch. They all support HuggingFace checkpoints — you can load any HF model with them for the corresponding architecture.

Hundreds of AI Model Checkpoints from Scaling Research
By
–
I now realized I probably have dozens of models there (maybe a hundred?) due to a dump of many checkpoints from one scaling paper, plus ul2 and flan-t5/ule series. And also umt5.
