Dual-adapter routing system improves knowledge editing precision in LLMs

A new arXiv paper introduces a route-specialized dual-adapter architecture for knowledge editing in LLMs, separating the concerns of writing edits (edit adapter) and suppressing them when irrelevant (locality adapter). A relevance router gates which adapter is applied, addressing the locality problem in memory-assisted editing. Evaluated on CounterFact, zsRE, and MQuAKE benchmarks using Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct and Qwen3-8B, the method achieves best-in-class probability-preference accuracy across all three datasets. Ablations show the gain comes from the architectural separation rather than increased parameter capacity.
