Abstract: The task of authorship style transfer involves rewriting text in the style of a target author while preserving the meaning of the original text. Existing style transfer methods train a single model on large corpora to model all target styles at once: this high-cost approach offers limited flexibility for target-specific adaptation, and often sacrifices meaning preservation for style transfer. In this paper, we propose AuthorMix: a lightweight, modular, and interpretable style transfer framework. We train individual, style-specific LoRA adapters on a small set of high-resource authors, allowing the rapid training of specialized adaptation models for each new target via learned, layer-wise adapter mixing, using only a handful of target style training examples. AuthorMix outperforms existing, SoTA style-transfer baselines — as well as GPT-5.1 — for low-resource targets, achieving the highest overall score and substantially improving meaning preservation.
Depression subtype classification from social media posts: few-shot prompting vs. fine-tuning of large language models
BackgroundSocial media provides timely proxy signals of mental health, but reliable tweet-level classification of depression subtypes remains challenging due to short, noisy text, overlapping symptomatology,
