MixSD adds new facts to language models while aiming to retain capabilities. It generates target sequences by mixing tokens from the base model conditioned on the fact and from the model given only the prompt, then fine-tunes with next-token loss. On KGFACT-SMALL, Qwen3-8B with λ=0.5 reached 97.0% training recall and 72.4% held-out average, versus 72.2% for the base model.
