Method status

Each method below separates what ran from what remains unpublished.

TQ4

Stores weights in 4 bits with a learned scale and codebook while retaining trainable controls above the compact substrate.

Measured
870 MB and 0.9998 cosine.
Missing
Full method publication.

Native FP4

Uses hardware 4-bit math without expanding every operation back to 16 bits.

Measured
Qwen3-8B at 40 tok/s and Qwen3-14B at 21 tok/s on 16 GB.

Megakernel

Places inference and training in one small program.

Artifact
