CoMerge is a conflict‑driven preference optimization framework for merging multiple expert language models into a single multi‑task model without full retraining. It treats model merging as a preference optimization problem, using self‑supervised, conflict‑driven hard negative samples derived from naive merging defects to refine lightweight, tensor‑wise merging coefficients. Experiments show CoMerge achieves near‑perfect performance on MergeBench and improves instruction‑following and safety on Llama‑3.1‑8B‑Instruct while optimizing only 1,445 scalar coefficients.
CoMerge introduces a conflict‑driven preference optimization framework for merging multi‑task large language models, reframing merging as a preference problem that uses self‑supervised hard negative samples derived from naive merging defects. By optimizing lightweight, tensor‑wise merging coefficients, the method mitigates parameter‑space conflicts while preserving task‑specific capabilities. Experiments show CoMerge achieves an average normalized performance of 0.9968 on MergeBench and improves conflict‑sensitive tasks on Llama‑3.1‑8B‑Instruct, outperforming both data‑free and data‑driven baselines while optimizing only 1,445 scalar coefficients.

arXiv:2603. 12658v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Continual learning (CL) has emerged as a pivotal paradigm to enable large language models (LLMs) to dynamically adapt to evolving knowledge and sequential tasks while mitigating catastrophic forgetting, a critical limitation of the static pre-training paradigm inherent to modern LLMs.
