Merging AI Models Like Birds of a Feather: Using Swarm Optimization to Build a Multitasking Super-Model
This paper introduces PSO-Merging, a novel data-driven method for merging language models based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Experimental results demonstrate that PSO-Merging outperforms baseline merging methods on different language models, offering a more efficient and scalable solution for model merging, especially when dealing with multiple large expert models.
Possible Conflicts of Interest
None identified
Identified Weaknesses
The feasibility of merging experts based on distinct base models or different architectures is unexplored, which limits the generalizability of the findings.
Limited Experimental Settings
All analysis experiments were conducted under one experimental setting, potentially neglecting nuances in performance under different conditions.
Rating Explanation
This paper presents a novel and effective approach for merging language models using Particle Swarm Optimization. The methodology is sound and the experimental results are promising, demonstrating improvements over baseline methods. While there are some limitations in terms of generalizability and the scope of the experimental settings, the overall contribution is significant.
