arXiv:2606. 22589v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Ever since the advent of foundation models and the pre-training-finetuning paradigm, there have been numerous efforts to merge multiple task-specific experts into a single multi-task model.
arXiv:2606. 26902v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-task model merging aims to consolidate several task-specific experts into a unified model, yet static merging consistently suffers from parameter interference.
Multi-task model merging aims to consolidate several task-specific experts into a unified model, yet static merging consistently suffers from parameter interference. While dynamic merging models aim to bridge this gap, many works rely on the costly storage and loading of redundant expert components at inference.
arXiv:2606. 18627v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model merging has emerged as a training-free alternative to multi-task learning, aiming to combine multiple task-specific fine-tuned models into a single multi-task model.
arXiv:2606. 19164v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Model merging aims to enable multi-task learning by integrating the capabilities of multiple models fine-tuned from the same pre-trained checkpoint into a single model.
arXiv:2512. 01461v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Model merging has emerged as a promising paradigm for enabling multi-task capabilities without additional training.
arXiv:2607. 03522v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fine-tuning a single low-rank adapter on many domains at once is multi-task learning: the domains must be co-learned, and how they share the adapter decides whether they help or hurt one another.
arXiv:2502. 04411v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Model merging aggregates Large Language Models (LLMs) finetuned on different tasks into a stronger one.
arXiv:2608. 12842v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model merging has recently attracted significant attention as a promising paradigm for constructing unified multi-task models without requiring additional retraining.
arXiv:2503. 05641v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Combining existing pre-trained LLMs is a promising approach for diverse reasoning tasks.
arXiv:2608. 01184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Data-free continual model merging must incorporate a stream of specialized models while retaining both pretrained general knowledge and previously acquired tasks, without access to task data.
arXiv:2506. 14126v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern deep learning is increasingly characterized by the use of open-weight foundation models that can be fine-tuned on specialized datasets.
arXiv:2312. 06173v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Merging models fine-tuned from a common, extensively pre-trained large model but specialized for different tasks has been demonstrated as a cheap and scalable strategy to construct a multi-task model that performs well across diverse tasks.
