Sparse Memory Finetuning as a Low-Forgetting Alternative to LoRA and Full Finetuning

Announce Type: replace Abstract: Adapting a pretrained language model to a new task often hurts the general capabilities it already had, a problem known as catastrophic forgetting. Sparse Memory Finetuning (SMF) tries to avoid this by adding key-value memory layers to the model and, on each training step, updating only the small set of memory rows that the current batch reads most heavily. We re-implement SMF on Qwen-2.5-0.5B-Instruct and compare it with LoRA and full finetuning on MedMCQA,...

UrbanFusion: Stochastic Multimodal Fusion for Contrastive Learning of Robust Spatial Representations

arXiv:2510.13774v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Forecasting urban phenomena such as housing prices and public health indicators requires the effective integration of various geospatial data. Current methods primarily utilize task-specific models, while recent generic models for spatial representations often support only limited modalities and lack multimodal fusion capabilities. To overcome these challenges, we present UrbanFusion, a spatial representation model that features Stochastic...
