arXiv:2609.09054v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Task vectors enable post-training model editing by identifying semantically meaningful directions in weight space, typically computed as the difference between a fine-tuned model and its pretrained initialization. However, this reliance on fine-tuning makes discovering such directions costly and limits the practicality of post-training model editing. To address this limitation, we introduce Training-Free Task Vectors (TFTVs), a novel method to compute task-vector-like directions without requiring fine-tuning. Our method maps activation
