Researchers have developed a reinforcement learning-based method, utilizing an actor-critic algorithm, to optimize the continual fine-tuning of foundation models on resource-limited devices. This approach addresses the challenge of deciding when to fine-tune a model with incoming data, considering compute costs and performance metrics. The method formulates the problem as a constrained Markov Decision Process and has demonstrated a significant improvement in accuracy, achieving 97% of full-parameter fine-tuning performance while using only 25% of the fine-tuning steps.
