# merge

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 [DARE](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.03099) [TIES](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.01708) merge method using [NousResearch/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B](https://huggingface.co/NousResearch/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B) as a base.
