Overview

The cathuriges/tigerlily-r3 model is a 12 billion parameter language model developed by cathuriges. It was created through a merging process using mergekit, specifically employing the Task Arithmetic method.

Merge Details

This model is an iteration building upon an unpublished 'R2' version, indicating a continuous development effort. The base model for this merge was grimjim/gemma-3-12b-it-norm-preserved-biprojected-abliterated.

Constituent Models

The tigerlily-r3 model integrates components from two distinct pre-trained language models:

• tame-tiger
• withered-calla

These models were combined with specific weighting parameters (0.75 for tame-tiger and 1 for withered-calla) to achieve the desired characteristics. The merge process also included normalization of parameters.

Use Cases

As a merged model, tigerlily-r3 is intended for general language generation and understanding tasks, leveraging the combined strengths of its constituent models and the base model.
