F10-AB a

Sanskrit DoneNeutral

f10ab_a_d60m

d60m (68.9M parameters) on plus_all band (96M words, 1 passes), trained on RTX 3060 12GB (Home GPU). Started 3 Oct 2026, ended 3 Oct 2026.

Hypothesis

Control for the quality filters: a 96M-word band of the F9 slice with only held-out removal.

What we learned

ex-Gita 0.6831, the reference for arm b.

Scores

Bits per byte, lower is better; change against the parent run, F9.

Curves

Training loss

Cross-entropy per token, by step. The first few percent of the run, far higher, run off the top; hover or the table has every value.

Held-out bits per byte

The validation split, evaluated during training, by step. Lower is better.

Throughput

Tokens per second, by step.
