    LISA: A Simple But Powerful Way to Fine-Tune LLM Efficiently

    LISA introduces a surprisingly simple yet effective strategy for fine-tuning LLMs. It builds upon a key observation about LoRA: the weight norms across different layers exhibit an uncommon skewness. The bottom and top layers tend to dominate the updates, while the middle layers contribute minimally.
