Democratizing Protein Language Models with Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning.

ABSTRACT: Proteomics has been revolutionized by large pre-trained protein language models, which learn unsupervised representations from large corpora of sequences. The parameters of these models are then fine-tuned in a supervised setting to tailor the model to a specific downstream task. However, as model size increases, the computational and memory footprint of fine-tuning becomes a barrier for many research groups. In the field of natural language processing, which has seen a similar explosion in the size of models, these challenges have been addressed by methods for parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT). In this work, we newly bring parameter-efficient fine-tuning methods to proteomics. Using the parameter-efficient method LoRA, we train new models for two important proteomic tasks: predicting
