General Use Sampling:
Mistral-Nemo-12B is very sensitive to the temperature sampler, try values near 0.3 at first or else you will get some weird results. This is mentioned by MistralAI at their Transformers section.
Best Samplers:
I found best success using the following for Starlight-V3-12B:
Temperature:0.7-1.2(Additional stopping strings will be necessary as you increase the temperature)
Top K:-1
Min P:0.05
Rep Penalty:1.03-1.1
Why Version 3?
Currently the other versions resulted in really bad results that I didn't upload them, the version number is just the internal version.
Goal
The idea is to keep the strengths of anthracite-org/magnum-12b-v2 while adding some more creativity that seems to be lacking in the model. Mistral-Nemo by itself seems to behave less sporadic due to the low temperature needed but this gets a bit repetitive, although it's still the best model I've used so far.
Results
I am not entirely pleased with the result of the merge but it seems okay, though base anthracite-org/magnum-12b-v2 might just be better by itself. However, I'll still experiement on different merge methods. Leaking of the training data used on both models seems a bit more apparent when using higher temperature values, especially the use of author notes on the system prompt. Generally I'd advise to create a stopping string for "```" to avoid the generation of the training data. Original Models:
