Event Description:
Logan Cerkovnik will be presenting, "DoRA: Weight-Decomposed Low-Rank Adaptation"
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2402.09353
"DoRA decomposes the pre-trained weight into two components, magnitude and direction, for fine-tuning, specifically employing LoRA for directional updates to efficiently minimize the number of trainable parameters. By employing DoRA, we enhance both the learning capacity and training stability of LoRA while avoiding any additional inference overhead. DoRA consistently outperforms LoRA on fine-tuning LLaMA, LLaVA, and VL-BART on various downstream tasks"

Silicon Valley Generative AI has two meeting formats.
1. Paper Reading - Every second week we meet to discuss machine learning papers. This is a collaboration between Silicon Valley Generative AI and Boulder Data Science.
2. Talks - Once a month we meet to have someone present on a topic related to generative AI. Speakers can range from industry leaders, researchers, startup founders, subject matter experts and those with an interest in a topic and would like to share. Topics vary from technical to business focused. They can be on how the latest in generative models work and how they can be used, applications and adoption of generative AI, demos of projects and startup pitches or legal and ethical topics. The talks are meant to be inclusive and for a more general audience compared to the paper readings.
