The paper presents a new parameter-efficient adaptation method called ChebyMA (Chebyshev Manifold Adaptation). ChebyMA adopts weight matrices through a multi-surface superposition of Chebyshev polynomial bases evaluated on learnable coordinates and combined via trainable coefficient matrices, replacing standard linear projections with highly expressive continuous function approximation. Theoretically, we establish an Approximation Expressivity Theorem, proving from the perspective of function approximation theory that single-manifold ChebyMA guarantees convergence in Frobenius norm error of reconstruction. Besides, drawing on Kolmogorov $n$-width intuition, we demonstrate the expressive advantages of multi-manifold superposition ($S > 1$) in decoupling high-dimensional complex features. Experimental results on Computer Vision CIFAR datasets(CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100)\cite{CIFAR} and Natural Language Processing (AG News, SST-2) datasets demonstrate that ChebyMA consistently achieves a superior parameter-accuracy Pareto front compared to standard full-parameter fine-tuning, LoRA\cite{LoRA}, TLoRA\cite{TLoRA}, and StelLA\cite{StelLA}. ChebyMA significantly outperforms other tested methods in tested datasets, validating its solid theoretical foundation for generality with purely vectorized computations.
While neural networks are typically evaluated by their training and test performance, these metrics do not reveal how robust a learned representation is. Recent studies have shown that solutions occupying larger volumes in parameter space, as quantified by Boltzmann entropy, ofte…
Reliable evaluation of open-ended LLM outputs requires fine-grained rubrics, yet expert curation is costly and difficult to scale. Existing automated pipelines rely on strict judge unanimity and binary variance filters, which cannot distinguish measurable rubrics from informative…
We study the expected improvement (EI) policy for minimizing a deterministic objective function $f$ on a nonempty compact set $\mathcal X \subset\mathbb R^d$. We assume that $f$ belongs to the RKHS $\mathcal H_k$ of a continuous positive-semidefinite kernel $k$ on $\mathcal X$. F…
Artificial intelligence is increasingly embedded in everyday software, making its integration into mobile apps inevitable. However, AI mobile app developers are not always versed in security and privacy best practices, leaving users to monitor their own security and understand ho…
Diffusion models have revolutionized generative tasks but incur high latency due to iterative denoising. While cache-based strategies accelerate inference by reusing intermediate features, they largely rely on static, sample-agnostic schedules. We argue that this rigidity overloo…
