| Challenge: | Experimental results on mainstream language models show that Evolver outperforms previous state-of-the-art models by large margins due to the high training costs of large language models. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to integrate multiple models from diverse training scenarios into a unified model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art models on mainstream language models by large margins. |
