Task Specific Model
Task-specific models aim to optimize performance on individual tasks by tailoring model architectures and training data to specific needs, rather than relying on general-purpose models. Current research focuses on improving efficiency and generalization through techniques like model merging (combining multiple task-specific models), instruction tuning (adapting models via natural language instructions), and the use of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures for handling diverse data. This work is significant because it addresses the limitations of general-purpose models in specialized domains and offers more efficient and adaptable solutions for various applications, including natural language processing, computer vision, and robotics.
