| # codegen-mono-multi__average__aligned |
|
|
| Training-free merged checkpoint from the **Mergeability** sweep |
| (`benchmark/emit_lm.py --real`), produced by weight-space merging of two independently |
| trained parents. No gradient steps were taken. |

|
| ## How it was made |
|
|
| Parents were loaded, activations extracted on a shared calibration corpus, and the merge applied |
| either **naive** (parents combined in their own coordinates) or **aligned** (parent B carried into |
| parent A's residual-stream basis via `common.alignment.residual_basis_map` before merging — |
| permutation for same-width pairs, orthogonal/rectangular for cross-width). |
|
|
| `MS` is the recovery score from `common.eval.mergeability_score` (merged vs. floor vs. ceiling), the |
| same normalisation used by Zhou et al., so it is comparable across rows of the sweep. |
|
|
| ## Caveats |
|
|
| Sub-1B merges are noisy; an aligned signal where the naive one is noise is the finding, not a bug. |
| Rows without a joint ceiling are floor-relative and must not be read as absolute recovery. |
