merge

This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using mergekit.

Merge Details

Merge Method

This model was merged using the SLERP merge method.

Models Merged

The following models were included in the merge:

• bamec66557/MISCHIEVOUS-12B-Mix_0.4v
• bamec66557/MISCHIEVOUS-12B-Mix_0.5v

Configuration

The following YAML configuration was used to produce this model:

description: Merging MISCHIEVOUS-12B-Mix models with sliced slerp

# Metadata and Rationale
model_description: |
  This configuration merges two versions of the MISCHIEVOUS-12B-Mix model: 0.4v and 0.3v.
  0.3v was further fine-tuned on a specific dataset (ADD DATASET NAME HERE if known).
  The sliced slerp approach allows for layer-specific control over the merging process.
