Today I’ll clearly explain: What is Lora❓ How does it works ❓ Followed by a hands-on coding tutorial❗️ But before we do that, let's set the stage with a brief overview of Fine-Tuning. Fine-Tuning: The Traditional approach Fine-tuning is a well-established method in machine learning where a pre-trained model is further trained (or "fine-tuned") on a specific task. This approach leverages the general knowledge the model has learned during its initial training (often on a large and diverse dataset) and adapts it to a particular use case. Here’s a typical representation of traditional Fine-Tuning 👇 Subscribe to keep reading This content is free, but you must be subscribed to ML Spring to continue reading. Already a subscriber?
