# Model parameter similarity experiments
|
|
|
|
Research on repeated learned functions in **Qwen3.5-2B**: a completed static weight baseline
|
|
and a training-free CPU functional pilot. The CPU study found similar existing RMSNorm
|
|
functions at layer indices 12/13, with a uniform analytic error bound and heldout substitution checks.
|
|
Cost is not a success condition. The completed static pilot was inference-free and its
|
|
weights were deleted after archival; the functional pilot executes streaming FP32 text forwards.
|
|
The current CPU functional checkpoint is retained until the user explicitly requests deletion.
|
|
No model weights are committed here.

The static baseline reports **verified net byte savings versus direct relative weight error**.
|
|
The functional study separately reports same-input error, an all-input RMSNorm function bound
|
|
and tiny heldout NLL changes; these are not broad task-accuracy guarantees. Different static
|
|
block scales are alternative partitions and their savings must not be summed.
