Most training-free pruning methods score each token's "importance" from attention maps and drop the low scorers. The authors argue this approach has four weaknesses. It treats scores as fixed even after other tokens are… 2. **[RoZO: Geometry-Aware Zeroth-Order Fine-Tuning on Low-Rank Adapters for Black-Box Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/song-2026-rozo-geometry-aware-zeroth-order/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Fine-tuning large language models with back-propagation needs a lot of memory, because activations must be stored. ## Co-authors here 5 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Conghui He](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/conghui-he/) - [Linfeng Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/linfeng-zhang/) - [Qintong Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/qintong-zhang/) - [Shaobo Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shaobo-wang/) - [Zichen Wen](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zichen-wen/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (EACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/): [EACL 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/2026/) - [Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/): [EMNLP 2025](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/2025/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 22 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [5 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/weijia-li/cited-by/).
