EXPERIMENTAL:

So what’s this new arcee_fusion merge method, and what can we do with it? This model aims to find out, as a multi-stage merge where 3 out of 4 steps are fusions:

A fusion of Lamarck-14B-v0.7 and @suayptalha’s Lamarckvergence SLERP merge of Lamarck-14B-v0.7 and Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS.
A SLERP of Lamarck-14B-v0.7-Fusionvergence with Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS, the latter emphasized in later layers.
A fusion of @jpacifico’s Chocolatine-2-14B-Instruct-v2.0.3, itself a finetune of a merge of Lamarck-14B-v0.7, Arcee’s (https://huggingface.co/arcee-ai/Virtuoso-Small-v2), and Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS, fusion-merged with - you guessed it - Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS
A fusion of the previous two.

I’ve seen strong prose from this model, which is natural considering its re-emphasis of Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS. A full evaluation will be cued shortly.

This merge strategy is much simpler than a mainline Lamarck release, but that is necessary to see how multiple fusion merges behave. Where it fits for efforts towards a Lamarck v0.8 depends greatly on evaluation and feedback.
