This repository contains a PEFT LoRA adapter trained by uditjain as part of the mewtwo research line on low-rank expert factorization and multi-domain adapter composition.

The adapter was trained on top of Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct using a custom LoRI-style procedure:

inject standard LoRA modules into the base model
replace the LoRA down-projection with a shared frozen random projection
keep the corresponding up-projection trainable as the domain-specific factor
apply post-training DARE-style sparsification

This release is the domain adapter artifact only. It is not a standalone model.

Training Procedure

Training method: LoRI-style PEFT LoRA adaptation with shared frozen random projection and trainable domain-specific factor
Post-processing: DARE-style sparsification
Precision: BF16 mixed-precision training
Optimizer: bnb_paged_adamw_8bit
Best recorded training loss: 0.128739
Recorded training time: 31.98 minutes

Usage

python

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel

base_model_id = "Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct"
adapter_id = "uditjain/lori-qwen2.5-1.5b-math"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(base_model_id)
base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(base_model_id)
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, adapter_id)

Research Context

This adapter belongs to a 5-domain family of LoRI-trained experts (math, code, science, legal, medical) explored in the mewtwo project as a successor direction to the earlier Synapta prompt-level composition work.

One family-level empirical result from the saved adapter weights is very low cross-domain overlap for the final Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct expert set:

average absolute cross-domain cosine similarity was measured at approximately 0.00685 across the 5 published Qwen2.5-1.5B expert adapters.

This supports the geometric motivation for the method, but it does not by itself prove superior end-to-end reasoning performance.

Limitations

This release is a domain-steering adapter, not a full validated routed MoE system.
The surrounding router and end-to-end composition stack remain a separate research layer.
Domain specialization does not guarantee factual correctness.
This adapter can still make arithmetic, symbolic, or reasoning mistakes. It should not be treated as a proof system.
Legal and medical use cases require especially careful human oversight.

Open Source Notes

This release is intended to make the trained adapter artifact reproducible and reusable by others working on:

low-rank expert factorization
adapter composition
domain adaptation on small language models
PEFT-based research baselines
