Three new research papers explore advanced techniques for supervised fine-tuning (SFT) of large language models. The first paper investigates optimal hyperparameters like learning rate and batch size across different model scales and families, including Qwen3 and Llama, for both LoRA and full fine-tuning. The second introduces Online Self-Weighted Fine-Tuning (OSW-FT), a method that adapts update magnitudes based on the model's estimated success rate, showing improvements on Qwen3 models for reasoning tasks. The third paper, 'Stick to What You Know,' focuses on knowledge-aligned SFT to reduce hallucinations by ensuring training targets align with the base model's internal knowledge, demonstrating effectiveness with Qwen-3 4B and OLMo 3 7B models.
