runtime verified research candidate

Model evaluation bench for the Kuku Yalanji training run. This page tracks the full v8-v20 diagnostic ladder, saved outputs, downloads, and resource profiles from each RunPod run.

Where the model is after 48 hours

The training pipeline works. v20 trained the full candidate corpus and fixed the length-compression failure, but it also proved that scale alone is not enough. The hard problem is now product routing, mixture control, and faithful generalization, not GPU plumbing.

Saved evals only

Exact known text

lookup-first

Bible references, DB usage examples, and elder-shared sentence pairs should come from the approved source table, not generation.

Bible draft

v12.0

Best current Bible-draft fallback by heldout Bible chrF; still not faithful canonical reproduction.

Usage draft

v10.0

Best current heldout DB/general usage signal. Newer balanced runs have not beaten it.

Latest research

v20.0

Full-candidate-corpus diagnostic; length compression is fixed, but faithful generalization is still unresolved.

Release verdict

The governed training-overlapping lexical gate and every frozen development retention check passed. ADVANCE authorizes further research, not unrestricted deployment: the model remains 0/43 exact on the elder diagnostic and lacks speaker-diverse human evaluation.

  • The headline 98.9721% score is accepted-reference reconstruction on 2,724 governed dictionary records shown 29 times each during training. It is not unseen-word generalisation or sentence accuracy.
  • The selected step improved every reported development sentence corpus-chrF endpoint over untouched v21.2, but the run used one seed and development data; elder exact remained 0/43.
  • The older 297-prompt benchmark scored 91 exact because only 208 prompts overlap and the two resources have different accepted surfaces; 206/208 overlapping predictions were supported by the governed census.
  • All 28 remaining governed-census failures are published with token, part-of-speech, semantic-domain, closest-reference, and checkpoint-trajectory evidence.
  • Dynamic CPU loading was verified with both task prefixes. It peaked at 8.00 GiB cgroup memory, settled around 7.0-7.2 GiB RSS, and produced 4.9-23.2 second requests under variable shared-disk pressure.
  • The adapter is large because PEFT persisted full embedding and output matrices for the trainable <lexeme> row. Repacking or merging requires full adapter-parity evaluation before release.
  • Known dictionary queries should continue to use deterministic lookup. Every generated sentence must be visibly labelled as an unverified research draft.

v24.3-joint-lexeme-dose29-s3598-20260715

v24.3-joint-lexeme-dose29-s3598-20260715

Current runtime-verified Kuku Yalanji research candidate for closed-set lexical reconstruction and separately labelled sentence drafts

runtime verified research candidate

n/a53.170/43

The governed training-overlapping lexical gate and every frozen development retention check passed. ADVANCE authorizes further research, not unrestricted deployment: the model remains 0/43 exact on the elder diagnostic and lacks speaker-diverse human evaluation.

v21.2-claude-balanced-replay-guarded-20260714

v21.2-claude-balanced-replay-guarded-20260714

Current Kuku Yalanji research model of record: frozen v21.2 weights with validated guarded decoding; CPU inference is intentionally unloaded

research only

43.8447.960/43

Retain the exact published v21.2 weights and guarded decoder as reproducible research artifacts, but do not load them for public CPU inference while natural elder-register transfer remains unsolved. The homepage uses separately labelled dictionary-context prompting until a stronger RunPod candidate clears the frozen linguistic and safety gates and receives appropriate speaker review.

v23.0-attested-narrative-adaptation-failed

v23.0-attested-narrative-adaptation-failed

Rejected three-seed attested-narrative adaptation retained as compact negative evidence

negative result

n/an/an/a

Do not promote. Seed 73 improved the held-out Text 3 corpus chrF++ point estimate by 0.6414, below the preregistered +1.0 floor; its paired interval crossed zero, untagged synthetic repetition worsened, and isolated lexical reconstruction fell to 46/297.

v22.0-step-matched-replay-3120-failed

v22.0-step-matched-replay-3120-failed

Rejected one-variable replay-exposure experiment retained as negative evidence

negative result

n/an/an/a

Do not promote. Step 3,120 failed the frozen greedy checkpoint gate because tagged synthetic repeated-segment rows were 37 against a maximum of 25, and paired comparison showed lower tagged synthetic, untagged synthetic, and dictionary-usage agreement than the final v21.2 step 4,155 checkpoint.

v21.2-claude-balanced-replay-v2-candidate

v21.2-claude-balanced-replay-v2-candidate

Historical v21.2 weights release; superseded for serving by the guarded-policy release without changing weights

research only

43.9147.140/43

Balanced replay preserves synthetic performance while materially recovering dictionary-usage and Bible retention relative to v21.1. Natural elder-register transfer remains unsolved, and synthetic morpheme loops remain a hard safety failure; serve only as a clearly labelled research draft pending speaker review.

v21.1-codex-synthetic-direct-v2-candidate

v21.1-codex-synthetic-direct-v2-candidate

Kuku Yalanji translation model v2 candidate

research only

28.7634.400/43

The model learned the synthetic treatment and remained stable without the task tag, but elder-shared, dictionary-usage, and Bible controls regressed severely. Preserve as a research artifact; keep retrieval-first routing and require balanced replay plus speaker review before promotion.

v20.0-full-candidate-corpus-gvn

v20.0-full-candidate-corpus-gvn

Full-candidate-corpus diagnostic artifact

internal proof

39.3943.260/43

Full-corpus v20 fixed the length-compression failure and completed the 35k-row diagnostic, but it is not a faithful general model: Bible heldout stays near 39 chrF, heldout usage is 43.26 chrF, and elder-shared sentence pairs regressed to 0/43 exact.

v19.0-balanced-replay-from-v12-gvn

v19.0-balanced-replay-from-v12-gvn

Balanced replay artifact

internal proof

44.2953.0329/43

Restores near-v12 Bible heldout while adding elder sentence-pair/usage signal, but does not replace v10 usage or v12 Bible routing.

v18.0-usage-elder-sentence-continuation-from-v10

v18.0-usage-elder-sentence-continuation-from-v10

Elder sentence-pair memorization proof artifact

internal proof

41.2554.5243/43

Exactly memorized all elder-shared sentence pairs, but regressed Bible and did not beat v10 on heldout usage.

v15.0-soft-lexical-hint-bible-gvn-token

v15.0-soft-lexical-hint-bible-gvn-token

Lexical-hint diagnostic

negative result

43.72n/an/a

Reproduced train rows strongly, but did not beat v12 on heldout Bible.

v13.0-retrieval-context-bible-gvn-token

v13.0-retrieval-context-bible-gvn-token

Retrieval-prefix diagnostic

negative result

29.71n/an/a

Retrieval context as an NLLB source prefix was harmful; heldout Bible dropped sharply.

v12.0-tagged-direct-plus-reference-bible-gvn-token

v12.0-tagged-direct-plus-reference-bible-gvn-token

Current Bible draft fallback

route candidate

44.36n/an/a

Best Bible draft heldout score before v19, but still zero exact heldout reproduction.

v11.0-byt5-bible-control-32row

v11.0-byt5-bible-control-32row

Byte-model control

negative result

5.71n/an/a

Failed the tiny overfit/control path; NLLB/LoRA remains the proven memorizing path for now.

v10.0-tagged-bible-plus-glossary-usage-tpi

v10.0-tagged-bible-plus-glossary-usage-tpi

Current usage/general draft fallback

route candidate

43.2956.18n/a

Best heldout usage signal so far; weaker Bible than v12/v19.

v9.8-tagged-bible-plus-db-usage-tpi

v9.8-tagged-bible-plus-db-usage-tpi

First DB-usage multitask diagnostic

internal proof

44.0439.47n/a

Memorized DB train examples but did not generalize well to word-id heldout usage.

v9.7-tagged-direct-plus-reference-bible-tpi

v9.7-tagged-direct-plus-reference-bible-tpi

Reference-conditioning baseline

internal proof

44.34n/an/a

Established tagged Bible direct/reference training as viable, but still zero exact heldout reproduction.

n/an/an/a

Machine-integrity gates pass, but linguistic-quality promotion does not: frozen-test chrF++ is 21.43 with 0/742 exact matches and material lexical/content failures. Permit only a visibly warned research preview pending qualified Mi'gmaq review.
