SpecFuse: Ensembling Large Language Models via Next-Segment Prediction

ArXi:2412.07380v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Ensembles of generative large language models (LLMs) are a promising way to compensate for individual model limitations, integrating the strengths of different LLMs. Existing LLM ensemble methods, however, face limitations such as first-token delay and challenges in long-range semantic collaboration between models, Moreover, they typically assume equal voting weights for all models during ensemble, ignoring task-specific performance differences among models. In this work, we propose SpecEM, a.
