Cross-LoRA: A Data-Free LoRA Transfer Framework across Heterogeneous LLMs

Traditional parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods such as LoRA are tightly coupled with the base model architecture, which constrains their applicability across heterogeneous pretrained large language models (LLMs). To address this limitation, we introduce Cross-LoRA, a data-free framework for transferring LoRA modules between diverse base models without requiring additional training data. Cross-LoRA consists of two key components: (a) LoRA-Align, which performs subspace alignment between source and target base models through rank-truncated singular value decomposition (SVD) and Frobenius-optimal linear transformation, ensuring compatibility under dimension mismatch; and (b) LoRA-Shift, which applies the aligned subspaces to project source LoRA weight updates into the target model parameter space. Both components are data-free, training-free, and enable lightweight adaptation on a commodity GPU in 20 minutes. Experiments on ARCs, OBOA and HellaSwag show that Cross-LoRA achieves relative gains of up to 5.26% over base models. Across other commonsense reasoning benchmarks, Cross-LoRA maintains performance comparable to that of directly trained LoRA adapters.

Random Euler Complex-Valued Nonlinear Filters

Over the last decade, both the neural network and kernel adaptive filter have successfully been used for nonlinear signal processing. However, they suffer from high computational cost caused by their complex/growing network structures. In this paper, we propose two random Euler filters for complex-valued nonlinear filtering problem, i.e., linear random Euler complex-valued filter (LRECF) and its widely-linear version (WLRECF), which possess a simple and fixed network structure. The transient and steady-state performances are studied in a non-stationary environment. The analytical minimum mean square error (MSE) and optimum step-size are derived. Finally, numerical simulations on complex-valued nonlinear system identification and nonlinear channel equalization are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
