# llama3-15b-v02

This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit).

## Merge Details
### Merge Method

This model was merged using the [linear](https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.05482) merge method.

### Models Merged

The following models were included in the merge:
* D:/text-generation-webui/models/meta-llama_Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct
* D:/text-generation-webui/models/taide_Llama3-TAIDE-LX-8B-Chat-Alpha1

### Configuration

The following YAML configuration was used to produce this model:

```yaml
dtype: bfloat16
merge_method: linear # use linear so we can include multiple models, albeit at a zero weight
parameters:
  weight: 1.0 # weight everything as 1 unless specified otherwise - linear with one model weighted at 1 is a no-op like passthrough
slices:
- sources:
  - layer_range: [0, 1]
    model: D:/text-generation-webui/models/meta-llama_Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct
  - layer_range: [0, 1]
    model: D:/text-generation-webui/models/taide_Llama3-TAIDE-LX-8B-Chat-Alpha1
    parameters:
      weight: 0
- sources:
  - layer_range: [1, 24]
    model: D:/text-generation-webui/models/meta-llama_Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct
  - layer_range: [1, 24]
    model: D:/text-generation-webui/models/taide_Llama3-TAIDE-LX-8B-Chat-Alpha1   
- sources:
  - layer_range: [24, 32]
    model: D:/text-generation-webui/models/taide_Llama3-TAIDE-LX-8B-Chat-Alpha1
    parameters:
      weight: 0
  - layer_range: [24, 32]
    model: D:/text-generation-webui/models/meta-llama_Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct
