KBLaM core definition

KBLaM (Knowledge Base augmented Language Model) is a Microsoft developedOpen Source Knowledge Base Enhancement Tool, by transforming external knowledge into vectors and embedding them in the attention layer of the larger model, enabling the model to directly utilize this knowledge for questioning and reasoning.

Essential differences from traditional fine-tuning

  • Different scope of modification: KBLaM trains only lightweight adapter embedding knowledge without changing the underlying model parameters; traditional fine-tuning requires retraining the entire model
  • Knowledge updating mechanisms: Support for dynamic updating of the knowledge base (linear costing), while the fine-tuned model does not have the flexibility to absorb new knowledge
  • computational efficiency: The cost grows linearly (O(n)) as the knowledge base expands, much less than the square-scale growth required for fine-tuning (O(n²))

technological breakthrough

adoptionRectangular Attention MechanismThis 'non-destructive enhancement' of realizing knowledge injection, which maintains the original model's text-processing capability and adds a new knowledge invocation function, is the biggest innovation in its architectural design.
