MiniCPM-V 4.5 beats much larger models by focusing on efficiency instead of brute force. Instead, it combines (1) extreme video compression, (2) smarter OCR/document pretraining, (3) controllable fast/deep reasoning, and (4) efficient alignment. So an 8B model can outperform

Limited Control and Understanding in Model Fine-tuning Approaches
By
–
Maybe it's a n-of-1 problem, but there's very little control (hyperparams etc.), and very little understanding (both on HOW it's being done (is it LoRA, fft, etc.) and telemetry-wise). May be n-of-1 b/c most people who want this stuff will run their own shit, but I personally
