UnverifiedPretraining's footprint on VRAM (or NPU on-chip memory) is usually several times that of inference, and it is extremely sensitive to numerical precision; a single overflow or underflow during mixed-precision training can cause the loss to diverge.71% similarUnverifiedLarge-scale rollout generation requires high-throughput inference capability, while the training stage requires substantial compute, and switching and allocating between the two within the same cluster is the core challenge.70% similarUnverifiedSelf-Consistency技术通过多次采样生成不同推理路径取最一致答案，代价是推理成本随采样次数线性增加70% similar
