A Review Study on CPU-Optimized Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning for Large Language Models to Increase Accuracy Using LoRA
Abstract: The fast proliferation of large language models (LLMs) has increased the need to optimize the process of fine-tuning, but the existing workflows that require a graphics processing unit (GPU) are still expensive, intensive, and unavailable to most researchers. This paper is driven by the desire to have a more cost-efficient and democratized version by examining a CPU-efficient implementation of parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) based on low-rank adaptation (LoRA). The major purpose …

A Threshold-Weighted Mathematical Fusion Model for Epidemic Outbreak Prediction Using SEIR Residual Dynamics and Cloud-Based Machine Learning
Abstract: Accurate prediction of epidemic outbreaks is critical for effective public health management, resource planning, early warning generation, and timely intervention by municipal authorities. Traditional compartmental models such as Susceptible–Exposed–Infectious–Recovered (SEIR) offer valuable epidemiological insights and mathematical interpretability; however, they may not adequately capture the complex nonlinear relationships present in real-world urban health systems. Conversely, data-driven machine learning techniques can identify hidden patterns in large datasets but often lack epidemiological structure …
