Learning to Recover Task Experts from a Multi-Task Merged Model

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.

CRLoMTL: Conflict-Resolution through Low-rank matrices for Multi-Task Learning

CRLoMTL is a parameter‑efficient multi‑task learning framework that mitigates task interference by operating in a low‑rank parameter‑update space rather than gradient space. It learns task‑specific LoRA updates and fuses them through a shared‑subspace resolver based on singular value decomposition, producing a single deployment‑time update that can be folded into the backbone. Experiments on Swin Transformer backbones across PASCAL‑Context, NYUD‑v2, and CelebA show that CRLoMTL improves accuracy over single‑task baselines while training only a small fraction of the parameters.
