ACE-Brain-0: Spatial Intelligence as a Shared Scaffold for Universal Embodiments
Ziyang Gong, Zehang Luo, Anke Tang +21
Universal embodied intelligence demands robust generalization across heterogeneous embodiments, such as autonomous driving, robotics, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). However,…
A Unified Generalization Framework for Model Merging: Trade-offs, Non-Linearity, and Scaling Laws
Qinglun Li, Anke Tang, Miao Zhang +3
Model merging efficiently aggregates capabilities from multiple fine-tuned models into a single one, operating purely in parameter space without original data or expensive re-compu…
OptMerge: Unifying Multimodal LLM Capabilities and Modalities via Model Merging
Yongxian Wei, Runxi Cheng, Weike Jin +7
Foundation models update slowly due to resource-intensive training, whereas domain-specific models evolve rapidly between releases. Model merging seeks to combine multiple expert m…
