LoRA: Low-Rank Adaptation of Large Language Models
Low-rank trainable updates adapt a frozen pretrained model without updating all of its parameters.
A preference-based objective optimizes a language model directly, avoiding a separate reward-model training stage.
Location refers to credited institutions or the listed organization, not author citizenship or an exhaustive collaboration list.
Compare the objective and assumptions with an RLHF pipeline.

Low-rank trainable updates adapt a frozen pretrained model without updating all of its parameters.
Human demonstrations and preference feedback are used to improve how a language model follows instructions.
The study examines how to allocate a training-compute budget between model size and training data.
