The proposed study aims to create a single, well-generalized multimodal language model (LLM) by combining multiple existing LLM variants trained on diverse datasets. The three LLM variants mentioned are LLaMA, Vicuna, and LLaVA, each with its unique training recipe, task, and data modality. By assembling these models efficiently, the authors hope to bring together the knowledge and specialities trained from different domains and modalities into a single model, such as chatbot capabilities from user-shared conversations for Vicuna and visual capacity from vision-language data for LLaVA. The goal is to avoid the high computing costs associated with training multiple models on separate domains.

Imagine you have many language models trained on different things like chatbots, pictures, and books. Each model learned something special from its training data. This study combines those models into one super powerful language model that can do lots of things well. It’s like taking a little bit of each model and mixing them together to create something new and useful. The researchers want to find the best way to combine these models without having to train many separate models.
