Terms & Concepts
- LoRA: LoRA (low-rank adaptation method) is a technique for fine-tuning large language models by updating a smaller set of parameters, reducing computing and memory needs.
- 1-bit LLM: A 1-bit large language model uses highly compressed model weights to lower hardware demands and improve efficiency during training or inference.
- Inference: Inference is the process of running a trained AI model to generate outputs such as text, predictions, or classifications.
