# UniLoRA
[Uni-LoRA](https://huggingface.co/papers/2506.00799) is a PEFT method that shares a compact trainable
vector bank across low-rank adapter weights. Instead of learning every LoRA matrix element independently, UniLoRA
deterministically projects entries into shared `theta_d` values and learns the shared parameters used by the adapter
update.
## Quick Start
```python
from peft import UniLoraConfig, get_peft_model
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B")
config = UniLoraConfig(
r=32,
theta_d_length=256,
proj_seed=42,
target_modules=["q_proj", "v_proj"],
unilora_dropout=0.0,
init_weights=True,
task_type="CAUSAL_LM",
)
peft_model = get_peft_model(model, config)
peft_model.print_trainable_parameters()
```
## Important Parameters
`r` controls the low-rank adapter dimension. Larger values increase adapter capacity and memory use.
`theta_d_length` controls the length of the shared UniLoRA vector bank. This is the main trainable storage shared by
the projected adapter entries.
`proj_seed` controls deterministic index generation for the fixed projections into `theta_d`. Reusing the same seed and
configuration makes the generated adapter indices reproducible.
`target_modules` selects which modules receive UniLoRA adapters. Use module suffixes such as `["q_proj", "v_proj"]`, a
regex string, or `"all-linear"` when supported by the model architecture.
`unilora_dropout` applies dropout inside UniLoRA adapter layers during training.
`init_weights` controls UniLoRA parameter initialization. Set it to `False` to keep a random `theta_d`
initialization when you need to manage initialization manually.
`save_indices` controls whether UniLoRA checkpoints save the generated index and scale tensors together with the
shared `theta_d` parameters. Keeping this disabled gives smaller checkpoints and regenerates indices from
`proj_seed`; enabling it makes saved adapters independent from future index-generation changes.
