Despite the success of parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods in reducing parameter-related overhead, fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) is still bottlenecked by significant memory and computational demands. In this paper, we propose **TokenDrop**, a token-level importance-aware backpr…
Large‑language‑model inference with long contexts often produces key–value (KV) caches whose footprint exceeds the capacity of high‑bandwidth memory on a GPU. Prior LLM inference frameworks such as vLLM mitigate this pressure by swapping KV cache pages to host DRAM. However, the high cost of large D…
Prior parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) algorithms reduce memory usage and computational costs of fine-tuning large neural network models by training only a few additional adapter parameters, rather than the entire model. However, the reduction in computational costs due to PEFT does not necess…
