Abstract
As large AI models become increasingly prevalent across a wide range of applications, memory cost has become a critical bottleneck in both training and inference. To mitigate this issue, we introduce the Linear Reusable Neural Bases Architecture (LRNBA), a novel framework aimed at improving parameter efficiency and reducing memory cost. Inspired by recurrent neural network (RNN) designs, the core idea of our approach is to represent each network block as a linear combination of a shared set of neural bases, thereby enjoying highly network compression rate while maintaining stable training. The proposed architecture allows for the construction of significantly wider and deeper networks under the same parameter budget. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our model achieves comparable or even faster convergence and lower loss than classical architectures, while maintaining stable training dynamics.
The results indicate that software engineering work practices are chosen opportunistically, adapted and configured to provide value under the constrains imposed by the startup context.

It is proved that any global minimizer of the trajectory balance objective can define a policy that samples exactly from the target distribution, and empirically demonstrate the benefits of the trajectories balance objective for GFlowNet convergence, diversity of generated samples, and robustness to long action sequences and large action spaces.
