Researchers have introduced a technique called "loss smoothing" to improve the adaptation of neural networks when faced with distribution shifts. This method involves gradually interpolating between the original source training objective and the new target objective at the beginning of the adaptation process. By doing so, it helps preserve valuable features learned from the source data while still allowing the model to specialize for the new task. Experiments across various domains, including vision adaptation, reinforcement learning, and language model fine-tuning, demonstrate that loss smoothing consistently enhances performance. AI
