A new study published on arXiv investigates the effectiveness of common Large Language Model (LLM) adaptation strategies when faced with "source shift" in climate disclosure classification. The research found that while strategies like similarity-based retrieval and LoRA fine-tuning perform well within a single source, their effectiveness diminishes when the source of the text changes. Simpler methods, such as randomly selected few-shot examples and definitions, proved more consistent across different sources, with definitions showing the most reliable transferability when their granularity aligned with the target text.
