Mephisto-1.0-4B

Mephisto-1.0-4B

This is an agentic model created by merging multiple fine-tuned models based on Qwen3.5-4B using a version of Mergekit forked to support Qwen3.5. Compared to Mephisto-4B, involved a more meaningful merging process; rather than completing it in a single step, a multi-stage merging approach was used.

Merge Details

Merge Method

1. Merge Jackrong/Qwopus3.5-4B-v3 and Jackrong/Qwopus3.5-4B-Coder using the SLERP method → ​​Create Model 1
2. Merge BAAI/AREX-Turbo and InternScience/Agents-A1-4B using the SLERP method → ​​Create Model 2
3. Merge Model 1 and Model 2 using DARE-TIES → This model

Configuration
