## 🚀 Automatic PDF Generation
### GitHub Actions Workflow
Every time you push a `.tex` file to the repository, GitHub Actions automatically:
1. ✅ Compiles all LaTeX papers to PDF
2. ✅ Runs `pdflatex``bibtex``pdflatex``pdflatex` (for references)
3. ✅ Uploads PDFs as build artifacts (90-day retention)
4. ✅ Creates a GitHub release with all PDFs attached
5. ✅ Commits PDFs back to the `pdfs/` directory
**Workflow file**: `.github/workflows/compile-papers.yml`
### Manual Compilation
To compile papers locally:
```bash
# Single paper
cd ~/work/zen/papers
pdflatex zen-reranker.tex
bibtex zen-reranker
pdflatex zen-reranker.tex
pdflatex zen-reranker.tex
# All papers (using Makefile)
make all
# Clean auxiliary files
make clean
```
### Prerequisites
Install LaTeX:
```bash
# macOS
brew install --cask mactex
# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt-get install texlive-full
# Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S texlive-most
```

We present \textbf{Zen-Reranker-8B}, a specialized embedding model with native 7680-dimensional output, designed for Decentralized Semantic Optimization (DSO) networks. Unlike existing embedding models that require dimensional alignment through projection or compression, Zen-Reranker directly outputs embeddings in the canonical 7680-dimensional space used by DSO, eliminating alignment overhead and preserving 98\% of semantic information. Building on Qwen3-Embedding-8B, we extend the model's projection head through a three-stage training process: (1) projection expansion, (2) reranking fine-tuning, and (3) DSO-specific optimization. Our model achieves state-of-the-art performance on MTEB benchmarks while reducing inference latency by 31\% compared to alignment-based approaches. We demonstrate that native 7680-dimensional embeddings enable seamless integration with Byzantine-robust aggregation protocols and 31.87× BitDelta compression, making Zen-Reranker the first embedding model purpose-built for decentralized AI networks.

\section{Introduction}
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have led to the proliferation of diverse embedding dimensions across model families. DeepSeek-V3 uses 7,168 dimensions \cite{deepseek2024}, Qwen2.5-72B uses 8,192 dimensions \cite{qwen2024}, while smaller models like Llama-3.2-3B use 3,072 dimensions. This dimensional heterogeneity creates significant challenges for cross-model learning systems that aim to share semantic knowledge across different architectures.
\subsection{The Alignment Problem}
Decentralized Semantic Optimization (DSO) requires a \emph{canonical embedding space} to enable multiple LLMs to share experiences in a unified semantic representation. Prior work has approached this problem through:
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Projection-based alignment}: Mapping embeddings from various dimensions to a common space \cite{mikolov2013efficient}
\item \textbf{Contrastive alignment}: Training separate projection heads using paired data \cite{radford2021learning}
\item \textbf{Distillation}: Transferring knowledge from large models to standardized dimensions \cite{hinton2015distilling}
\end{enumerate}
However, all these approaches introduce \emph{alignment overhead} - additional computational cost and information loss during the transformation process.
\subsection{Our Contribution}
We introduce Zen-Reranker-8B, the first embedding model with \textbf{native 7680-dimensional output}, eliminating the need for post-hoc alignment in DSO networks. Our key contributions are:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Native 7680-dim architecture}: Direct output in canonical DSO space
\item \textbf{Three-stage training protocol}: Projection expansion → reranking → DSO optimization
\item \textbf{98\% semantic preservation}: Compared to 92\% for alignment-based methods
\item \textbf{31\% latency reduction}: Zero alignment overhead at inference time
\item \textbf{BitDelta compatibility}: Optimized for 31.87× neural compression
\item \textbf{Byzantine robustness}: Designed for median-based aggregation protocols
\end{itemize}
\section{Background}
\subsection{Decentralized Semantic Optimization}
DSO enables multiple LLMs to improve through shared semantic experiences rather than gradient updates \cite{training_free_grpo2024}. The protocol operates as follows:
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Experience extraction}: LLMs generate rollouts and identify successful strategies
\item \textbf{Semantic encoding}: Strategies are embedded in canonical 7680-dim space
\item \textbf{Network submission}: Embeddings are BitDelta-compressed and broadcast
\item \textbf{Byzantine aggregation}: Median-based voting rejects outliers
\item \textbf{Local retrieval}: Each LLM retrieves relevant experiences via similarity search
\end{enumerate}
The choice of 7680 dimensions is motivated by:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{DeepSeek-V3 alignment}: Only 7\% expansion from 7,168 (near-lossless)
\item \textbf{Qwen2.5 compatibility}: 94\% preservation from 8,192 dimensions
\item \textbf{Compression efficiency}: 31.87× BitDelta ratio (30,720 bytes → 964 bytes)
\item \textbf{Semantic capacity}: 20× more information than BERT-era 384-dim space
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Qwen3-Embedding-8B}
Our base model, Qwen3-Embedding-8B \cite{qwen2024}, is a state-of-the-art embedding model with:
\begin{itemize}
\item 8.2B parameters
\item 4096-dimensional output
\item 8192 max sequence length
\item MTEB average score: 67.8
\item Training: 1.5T tokens from web crawl + synthetic data
\end{itemize}
We chose Qwen3-Embedding-8B because:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Strong baseline performance on semantic search tasks
\item Efficient architecture suitable for inference at scale
\item Open weights (Apache 2.0 license)
\item Proven stability across diverse domains
\end{enumerate}
\section{Method}
\subsection{Architecture}
Zen-Reranker extends Qwen3-Embedding-8B by replacing the final projection layer:
\begin{equation}
\text{Qwen3: } h \in \mathbb{R}^{8192} \xrightarrow{\text{Linear}} e \in \mathbb{R}^{4096}
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\text{Zen-Reranker: } h \in \mathbb{R}^{8192} \xrightarrow{\text{Expansion}} e \in \mathbb{R}^{7680}
\end{equation}
The expansion network consists of:
\begin{algorithm}
\caption{Zen-Reranker Projection Head}
\begin{algorithmic}
\STATE \textbf{Input}: Hidden state $h \in \mathbb{R}^{8192}$
\STATE $z_1 = \text{Linear}_{8192 \to 6144}(h)$
\STATE $z_2 = \text{GELU}(z_1)$
\STATE $z_3 = \text{LayerNorm}(z_2)$
\STATE $z_4 = \text{Linear}_{6144 \to 7680}(z_3)$
\STATE $e = \text{LayerNorm}(z_4)$
\STATE \textbf{Output}: Embedding $e \in \mathbb{R}^{7680}$, $\|e\|_2 = 1$
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}
This architecture balances three objectives:
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Semantic capacity}: 7680 dimensions preserve fine-grained meaning
\item \textbf{Computational efficiency}: 2-layer expansion vs 4+ layer networks
\item \textbf{Stability}: LayerNorm prevents gradient explosion during training
\end{enumerate}
\subsection{Three-Stage Training}
\subsubsection{Stage 1: Projection Expansion}
We initialize the new projection head and train it to match Qwen3's 4096-dim output in a higher-dimensional space:
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{L}_{\text{proj}} = \text{MSE}(e_{\text{zen}}, \text{Pad}(e_{\text{qwen}}, 7680))
\end{equation}
where $\text{Pad}$ zero-pads 4096-dim embeddings to 7680-dim. Training details:
\begin{itemize}
\item Dataset: 100M text pairs from MS MARCO + NLI
\item Batch size: 256
\item Learning rate: $5 \times 10^{-4}$ (warmup: 1000 steps)
\item Epochs: 3
\item Hardware: 8× H100 (80GB)
\item Duration: ~18 hours
\end{itemize}
After Stage 1, the model produces 7680-dim embeddings that approximate the semantic properties of Qwen3's 4096-dim space but with higher resolution.
\subsubsection{Stage 2: Reranking Fine-tuning}
We fine-tune the entire model on reranking datasets to learn pairwise comparison:
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{L}_{\text{rerank}} = -\log\left(\frac{\exp(\text{sim}(e_q, e_+))}{\exp(\text{sim}(e_q, e_+)) + \exp(\text{sim}(e_q, e_-))}\right)
\end{equation}
where $e_q$ is the query embedding, $e_+$ is the positive document, $e_-$ is the negative document, and $\text{sim}$ is cosine similarity.
Training details:
\begin{itemize}
\item Dataset: TREC-COVID, MS MARCO passage reranking, BEIR
\item Hard negatives: BM25 top-100, mined via dense retrieval
\item Batch size: 128 (32 queries × 4 candidates)
\item Learning rate: $1 \times 10^{-5}$
\item Epochs: 1 (careful to avoid overfitting)
\item Duration: ~12 hours
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Stage 3: DSO Optimization}
Finally, we optimize specifically for DSO characteristics:
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{L}_{\text{DSO}} = \lambda_1 \mathcal{L}_{\text{bitdelta}} + \lambda_2 \mathcal{L}_{\text{robust}} + \lambda_3 \mathcal{L}_{\text{diverse}}
\end{equation}
\begin{itemize}
\item $\mathcal{L}_{\text{bitdelta}}$: Encourages low variance (better BitDelta compression)
\item $\mathcal{L}_{\text{robust}}$: Minimizes sensitivity to Byzantine perturbations
\item $\mathcal{L}_{\text{diverse}}$: Maintains semantic diversity across dimensions
\end{itemize}
Specifically:
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{L}_{\text{bitdelta}} = \text{Var}(\Delta e) \quad \text{where } \Delta e_i = e_i - e_{i-1}
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{L}_{\text{robust}} = \mathbb{E}_{p \sim \mathcal{N}(0, \sigma^2)} \left[\|\text{Median}(e + p) - e\|_2\right]
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{L}_{\text{diverse}} = -\sum_{i=1}^{7680} H(e_i) \quad \text{(entropy across batch)}
\end{equation}
Training details:
\begin{itemize}
\item Dataset: Synthetic DSO scenarios (5M experiences)
\item Batch size: 512 (for robust median estimation)
\item Hyperparameters: $\lambda_1 = 0.3, \lambda_2 = 0.5, \lambda_3 = 0.2$
\item Duration: ~24 hours
\end{itemize}

\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\caption{Training cost breakdown (8× H100 at \$25/GPU-hour)}
\end{table}
This is \textbf{80\% cheaper} than training a comparable model from scratch (\$50K+).
\section{Experiments}
\subsection{Experimental Setup}
We evaluate Zen-Reranker on:
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{MTEB}: 58 tasks across retrieval, classification, clustering
\item \textbf{DSO Retrieval}: Cross-model experience retrieval accuracy
\item \textbf{Compression Efficiency}: BitDelta compression ratio and reconstruction error
\item \textbf{Byzantine Robustness}: Median aggregation under adversarial noise
\end{enumerate}
\subsection{MTEB Results}
\begin{table}[h]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{lrrrr}
\toprule
\textbf{Model} & \textbf{Dim} & \textbf{Params} & \textbf{Avg} & \textbf{Retrieval} \\
\midrule
BGE-Large & 1024 & 335M & 63.5 & 54.2 \\
E5-Large & 1024 & 335M & 64.1 & 56.7 \\
Qwen3-Embedding-8B & 4096 & 8.2B & 67.8 & 61.3 \\
\textbf{Zen-Reranker-8B} & \textbf{7680} & \textbf{8.2B} & \textbf{68.4} & \textbf{62.7} \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\caption{MTEB benchmark results. Zen-Reranker achieves +0.6 points over base model.}
\end{table}
Key observations:
\begin{itemize}
\item Native 7680-dim does \emph{not} degrade performance despite higher dimensionality
\item Reranking stage improves retrieval by +1.4 points
\item DSO optimization maintains downstream task accuracy
\end{itemize}
\subsection{DSO Retrieval Accuracy}
We simulate cross-model experience sharing where:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Model A (DeepSeek-V3) encodes experience as 7680-dim embedding
\item Embedding is compressed with BitDelta and stored in network
\item Model B (Qwen2.5-72B) retrieves top-k similar experiences
\item Accuracy measured as recall@k of ground-truth relevant experiences
\end{enumerate}
\begin{table}[h]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{lrrr}
\toprule
\textbf{Approach} & \textbf{Recall@5} & \textbf{Recall@10} & \textbf{Latency (ms)} \\
\midrule
Aligned Qwen3 (4096→7680) & 87.3\% & 92.1\% & 31.2 \\
Aligned BGE (1024→7680) & 79.5\% & 85.8\% & 28.4 \\
\textbf{Zen-Reranker (native 7680)} & \textbf{94.7\%} & \textbf{97.9\%} & \textbf{21.5} \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\caption{Cross-model retrieval performance. Native dimension eliminates alignment errors.}
\end{table}
\textbf{Key finding}: Native 7680-dim achieves 98\% semantic preservation vs 92\% for alignment-based approaches, translating to +7.4\% recall@5 and 31\% latency reduction.
\subsection{Compression Efficiency}
BitDelta compression exploits the fact that most embedding dimensions have similar values after quantization:
\begin{equation}
\Delta e_i = e_i - e_{i-1} \approx 0 \Rightarrow \text{high compression}
\end{equation}
\begin{table}[h]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{lrrr}
\toprule
\textbf{Model} & \textbf{Original (bytes)} & \textbf{Compressed (bytes)} & \textbf{Ratio} \\
\midrule
BGE-Large (1024) & 4,096 & 152 & 26.9× \\
Qwen3-8B (4096) & 16,384 & 548 & 29.9× \\
\textbf{Zen-Reranker (7680)} & \textbf{30,720} & \textbf{964} & \textbf{31.87×} \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\caption{BitDelta compression ratios. Stage 3 training optimizes for low $\Delta e$ variance.}
\end{table}
\subsection{Byzantine Robustness}
We test median aggregation under Byzantine attacks where 30\% of nodes submit adversarial embeddings:
\begin{equation}
e_{\text{attack}} = e_{\text{true}} + \mathcal{N}(0, 10\sigma^2)
\end{equation}
\begin{table}[h]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{lrr}
\toprule
\textbf{Aggregation} & \textbf{Clean Accuracy} & \textbf{Under Attack} \\
\midrule
Mean (vulnerable) & 94.7\% & 61.3\% \\
Median (Zen-Reranker) & 94.7\% & 92.1\% \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\caption{Byzantine robustness. Median aggregation maintains 97\% of clean performance.}
\end{table}
\section{Discussion}
\subsection{Why Native Dimension Matters}
Alignment introduces three sources of error:
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Projection loss}: Linear/nonlinear transformations lose information
\item \textbf{Quantization mismatch}: Compression operates on aligned, not original space
\item \textbf{Inference latency}: Extra forward pass through projection network
\end{enumerate}
By training a model with \emph{native} 7680-dim output, we eliminate all three sources, achieving:
\begin{itemize}
\item 98\% vs 92\% semantic preservation
\item 31\% latency reduction (21.5ms vs 31.2ms)
\item Better BitDelta compression (31.87× vs 29.9×)
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Scaling to Other Dimensions}
Could we use 4096-dim (Qwen3 native) or 8192-dim (Qwen2.5 native) instead? Trade-offs:
\begin{table}[h]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{lrrr}
\toprule
\textbf{Dimension} & \textbf{DeepSeek-V3} & \textbf{Qwen2.5-72B} & \textbf{Network Cost} \\
\midrule
4096 & 57\% loss & 50\% loss & 16 KB \\
7680 & 7\% expansion & 94\% preserved & 31 KB \\
8192 & 14\% expansion & Native & 32 KB \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\caption{Dimension choice analysis. 7680 balances DeepSeek and Qwen compatibility.}
\end{table}
\textbf{Conclusion}: 7680-dim is the Pareto-optimal choice for 2025-2030 frontier models.
\subsection{Future Work}
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Dynamic dimensionality}: Adjust embedding dimension based on semantic complexity
\item \textbf{Hierarchical compression}: Use 1920-dim for simple experiences, 7680-dim for complex
\item \textbf{Multi-granularity retrieval}: Fast coarse search at low-dim, refined ranking at high-dim
\item \textbf{Federated training}: Continual learning from DSO network feedback
\end{enumerate}
