We have released an open-source prompt-learning toolkit, check out OpenPrompt!

We strongly encourage the researchers that want to promote their fantastic work to the community to make pull request to update their paper's information! (See contributing details)

Effective adaptation of pre-trained models could be probed from different perspectives. Prompt-learning more focuses on the organization of training procedure and the unification of different tasks, while delta tuning (parameter efficient methods) provides another direction from the specific optimization of pre-trained models.
