Less intrusive.</li><li>K+V: Uses both key (K) and value (V). Exerts more influence on the results.</li><li>K_V w/ C penalty: Same as K+V, but with a consistency penalty (C) to avoid distortions.</li><li>K+mean(V) w/ C penalty: Uses K and the mean of V, with consistency penalty — balances smoothness with control.</li></ul><h3 id="combine-embeddings-methods-for-merging-multiple-embeddings:-jnpmsjeat">combine embeddings – Methods for merging multiple embeddings:</h3><ul><li>concat: Direct concatenation — simply joins the embeddings along the feature dimension, increasing total size. Preserves all individual information.</li><li>add: Element-wise addition — sums the corresponding values of the vectors. Directly blends the representations.</li><li>subtract: Subtracts embeddings — useful to highlight differences between them (e.g., style A - style B). Can produce distinct visual variations.</li><li>average: Simple average — smooths the embeddings, producing a balanced blend. Less prone to distortions.</li><li>norm average: Normalized average — same idea as average, but normalizes the vectors before combining, keeping magnitude consistent among them. Helps prevent embeddings with vastly different weights from dominating the blend.</li></ul>
