arXiv:2606. 19549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) makes it cheap to train many domain- and task-specific language model adapters, but whether two adapters can be merged is usually discovered only after both have been fully trained and evaluated.

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:2606. 03723v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) enables parameter-efficient specialization of foundation models, but the proliferation of task-specific adapters fragments capabilities across many adapters, complicating reuse and deployment.

arXiv:2606. 16501v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model merging has become a practical post-training strategy for building a single multi-task large language model (LLM) by combining multiple task-specialized models.
