 ### 8. New Trends
 
 * **Positional embeddings**: Learn how LLMs encode positions, especially relative positional encoding schemes like [RoPE](https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.09864). Implement [YaRN](https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.00071) (multiplies the attention matrix by a temperature factor) or [ALiBi](https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.12409) (attention penalty based on token distance) to extend the context length.
-* **Model merging**: Merging trained models has become a popular way of creating peformant models without any fine-tuning. The popular [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit) library implements the most popular merging methods, like SLERP, [DARE](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.03099), and [TIES](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.03099).

 * **Mixture of Experts**: [Mixtral](https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.04088) re-popularized the MoE architecture thanks to its excellent performance. In parallel, a type of frankenMoE emerged in the OSS community by merging models like [Phixtral](https://huggingface.co/mlabonne/phixtral-2x2_8), which is a cheaper and performant option.
 * **Multimodal models**: These models (like [CLIP](https://openai.com/research/clip), [Stable Diffusion](https://stability.ai/stable-image), or [LLaVA](https://llava-vl.github.io/)) process multiple types of inputs (text, images, audio, etc.) with a unified embedding space, which unlocks powerful applications like text-to-image.
