Not All Task Vectors Need Equal Rank: Energy-Proportional Allocation for Model Merging

Model merging aims to combine multiple fine-tuned models derived from a common pretrained model into a single multi-task model without additional joint training. Recent spectral merging methods improve over simple weight averaging by exploiting low-rank structures of task-specific updates, but they commonly assign the same rank capacity to every task. This uniform allocation ignores that task…
