to unify voice and terminology (final global processing).<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Output requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The tone is consistent throughout.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Terms and abbreviations are consistent<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use consistent expressions when referencing other language (e.g., consistently use &quot;argue\/suggest\/find&quot;).<br>Finally, read it through again manually to make sure it sounds like &quot;what you wrote&quot;.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4)<a href=\"http:\/\/diffmind.net\">DiffMind<\/a> How to transform &quot;multi-model stitching&quot;
