F10-AB b

Sanskrit DoneNeutral

f10ab_b_d60m

d60m (68.9M parameters) on plus_all band, filtered (90M words, 1.07 passes), trained on RTX 3060 12GB (Home GPU). Started 3 Oct 2026, ended 4 Oct 2026.

Hypothesis

Quality filters (transliteration junk, other languages, garbled text) on the same band help.

What we learned

Tie: ex-Gita 0.6814 vs 0.6831 (-0.26%, inside the noise). Dropping 6% of the words costs nothing, so F10 trains on the filtered slice.

Scores

Bits per byte, lower is better; change against the parent run, F10-AB a.

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.
