New Local Support Learning framework combats catastrophic forgetting in LLMs

Researchers have introduced Local Support Learning (LSL), a novel framework designed to combat catastrophic forgetting in large pre-trained models. LSL employs a dual-component system: a standard weight adapter for new learning and a gating function that restricts updates to specific data distributions. This approach aims to retain prior capabilities without needing access to old data, proving effective in LLMs up to 7 billion parameters. AI

IMPACT This framework could enable more robust and continuous learning in large language models, reducing the need for complete retraining.

    Local Support Learning

    We explore catastrophic forgetting in the context of large pre-trained models. By considering forgetting as a geometric problem in the input space of each weight matrix, we uncover a natural retention objective under which updates produced by gradient-based optimizers are subopti…
