不训练也不对齐，仅靠加权平均就能合并不同规模大模型。

Can large language models with substantially different parameter spaces be merged by direct weighted averaging, without training or semantic alignment? Existing heterogeneous fusion methods typically introduce distillation, adapters, learned latent spaces, routing, or feature alignment, leaving open whether a simpler recipe can work for genuinely different billion-parameter checkpoints. We revisit this counterintuitive question through training-free dimensional adaptation followed by ratio-controlled interpolation. In union-style merging, we expand the smaller model into the larger parameter space; in intersection-style merging, we truncate the larger model into the smaller parameter space. Across Qwen-family model pairs and benchmarks covering mathematical reasoning, code generation, language understanding, commonsense reasoning, knowledge, and instruction following, deterministic expansion largely preserves the source model function, and small-ratio interpolation can improve over strong source checkpoints by transferring complementary capabilities. However, near-balanced interpolation often collapses, and task-level results reveal a seesaw effect in which gains on some capabilities coexist with regressions on others. These results show that simple parameter averaging, when paired with lightweight dimensional adaptation and carefully controlled ratios, is a surprisingly strong baseline for heterogeneous LLM merging, suggesting that the limits of direct weighted fusion may also bound what more complex heterogeneous merging methods can achieve at scale.
