This makes LoHa much more parameter-intensive than standard LoRA, not similar as claimed.

Previous bug: - Used nominal groupSize in modulo calculation - When last group is shorter (sequence not divisible by group size), shift calculation goes beyond group bounds - Example: sequence=100, groupSize=32, last group is 4 elements but shift used % 32 causing indices 4-31 to wrap incorrectly Correct implementation: - Calculate actualGroupSize = min(groupSize, sequenceLength - groupStart) - Use actualGroupSize in modulo for shifted index calculation - Ensures indices stay within actual group bounds Affected cases: - 2D tensors [batch, sequence]: line 509-511 - 3D tensors [batch, sequence, features]: line 545-547 Resolves: LongLoRAAdapter.cs:423 (Shifted attention indexing breaks multi-dim inputs) 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> * fix: remove unnecessary null checks in dvoraadapter parametercount Removed defensive null checks for _magnitude, _scalingVectorD, and _scalingVectorB in ParameterCount property.

The Clone() method preserves the activation function, ensuring the merged layer has the same behavior as the original adapted layer.

This fix ensures merged layers preserve all base layer properties including activation function. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> * refactor: extract merge helper to eliminate code duplication Created CreateMergedLayerWithClone() helper method in LoRAAdapterBase to eliminate duplicated Clone() pattern across adapters. Updated DVoRAAdapter, MoRAAdapter, DoRAAdapter, and AdaLoRAAdapter to use the helper, reducing ~17 lines to 2 lines per adapter. This follows DRY principle and makes the activation function preservation pattern consistent and maintainable. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> * fix: preserve activation function in 10 lora adapters Updated StandardLoRA, VeRA, QLoRA, LoRAPlus, DyLoRA, LoRAFA, ReLoRA, DeltaLoRA, PiSSA, and VBLoRA adapters to use CreateMergedLayerWithClone() helper method. This ensures activation functions are preserved when merging LoRA weights into base layers for deployment. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> * fix: preserve activation function in remaining 13 lora adapters Updated ChainLoRA, DenseLoRA, GLoRA, HRA, LoftQ, LoHa, LoKr, LongLoRA, LoRADrop, MultiLoRA, QALoRA, RoSA, and XLoRA adapters to use CreateMergedLayerWithClone() helper method. This completes the activation function preservation fix across all 27 LoRA adapter variants, ensuring merged layers maintain the same behavior as adapted layers. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> * fix: preserve activation function in slora and tiedlora adapters Updated SLoRA and TiedLoRA adapters to use CreateMergedLayerWithClone() helper method, completing activation function preservation fix across all 29 LoRA adapter variants. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> * fix: add null guard to lokradapter parametercount Added null check for _matrixA and _matrixB in ParameterCount getter to prevent NullReferenceException during base class construction. Falls back to base.ParameterCount when matrices are not yet initialized. Resolves: PRRT_kwDOKSXUF85gOBkf 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> * fix: align gradient packing with parameter order in multiloraadapter Changed UpdateParameterGradientsFromLayers to iterate all task adapters in the same order as GetParameters/SetParameters. Previously, it only packed the active task's gradients which caused misalignment when the active task wasn't first in the dictionary. Now correctly emits gradients or zeros for each adapter in dictionary order.

Returning only B size caused buffer overruns. Now ParameterCount matches buffer layout while freeze behavior is handled at update time.

Now we reallocate with correct size after initialization, ensuring ParameterCount matches buffer length and _matrixM is properly included in serialization.

Even though only R matrix (rank²) is trainable, ParameterCount must match the allocated buffer size to prevent construction crashes. Resolves: PRRT_kwDOKSXUF85gOBki 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> * fix: guard against near-zero range in qlora quantization Changes: - Use threshold check (> 1e-12) instead of exact zero equality - Clamp range to minimum 1e-12 before computing scale - Prevents division by zero with constant or nearly-constant weight blocks - Handles bias-only columns and pruned weights correctly Near-zero ranges (not just exactly zero) cause NaN or exceptions when QuantizeValue divides by scale. This fix ensures scale is always non-zero even for constant blocks.

Returning 0 causes buffer underflow when base class packs parameters. Now computes expected size from layer dimensions.

Now preserves the configured activation function.

With inverted dropout pattern: - Training: scale UP by 1/(1-dropout) to compensate for dropped components - Inference: NO scaling (all components active, already properly scaled) The previous code incorrectly scaled down by (1-dropout) during inference, reducing LoRA contribution to only 64% of expected value (with dropout=0.2).
