Title: A gentle introduction to fine-tuning large language models

Abstract: In contrast to traditional Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques, Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success in various NLP tasks including question-answering, summarization, name-entity recognition, and machine translation. Fine-tuning these pre-trained LLMs for specific tasks and domains enhances the model’s performance. This seminar will be about most-common fine-tuning techniques and the computational power requirements.
