In PEFT 0.9, support was added for adapters trained using a new flag called
use_rslora
.When set to True, Rank-Stabilized LoRA sets the adapter scaling factor to
lora_alpha/math.sqrt(r)
, since it was proven to work better. Otherwise, it will use the original default value oflora_alpha/r
.In equation form:
W0X + (lora_alpha/r)(BAX)
where W0 is the base model, BA are the lora weight matrices and X is the input from the embedding layer/previous transformer layer.In particular, this is useful when using larger ranks since it prevents the gradient from collapsing as rank increases, which may result in higher ranks actually leading to better performance (not true by default today and in the original LoRA paper).
