Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The full fine-tuning paradigm becomes impractical when applying pre-trained models to downstream tasks due to significant computational and storage costs. Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods can alleviate the issue. However, solely applying PEFT methods leads to sub-optimal performance owing to the domain gap between pre-trained models and medical downstream tasks.
