A more robust attempt at merging TheDrummer's UnslopNemo v3 into Pixtral 12B.
Has been really stable in my testing so far. Needs more testing to see what samplers it does/doesn't like.
Seems to be the best of both worlds - less sloppy, more engaging content and decent intelligence / visual understanding.
## Merging Approach
First, I loaded up Pixtral 12B Base and Mistral Nemo Base to compare their parameter differences.
Looking at the L2 norm / relative difference values I was able to isolate which parts of Pixtral 12B are a significant deviation from Mistral Nemo.
Because while the language model architecture is the same between the two, a lot of vision understanding has been trained into Pixtral's language model and can break very easily.
Then I calculated merging weights for each parameter using an exponential falloff. The smaller the difference, the higher the weight.
Applied this recipe to Pixtral Instruct (Pixtral-12B-2409) and TheDrummer's UnslopNemo-12B-v3. The goal is to infuse as much Drummer goodness without breaking vision input. And it looks like it's worked!
## Usage
Needs more testing to identify best sampling params, but so far just using ~0.7 temp + 0.03 min p has been rock solid.
