Output projection

learnedself.o_proj(attn_output)

Map 16,384 head features to the 6,144-feature update.

{\htmlData{light=output projection}{\Delta_{\mathrm{attn}}}}={\htmlData{light=merged merge}{o}}W_{O}

in: $o$ [B batch, 1 positions, 16384 heads × value]
out: $\Delta_{\mathrm{attn}}$ [B batch, 1 positions, 6144 d]
parameters: 100,663,296 · × 75 MoE blocks = 7,549,747,200

Parameters

100,663,296 parameters per instance.

Exact per-instance accounting
Component	Calculation	Parameters
Weight matrix	$16{,}384 \times 6{,}144$	100,663,296
Per-instance total		100,663,296

This projection has no bias parameter.

The reference module holds the weight output by input, [out, in].

Across 75 independent MoE blocks: $100{,}663{,}296 \times 75 = 7{,}549{,}747{,}200$ parameters.

Derived from the configured matrix dimensions; the model total matches the checkpoint’s tensors.

MLA owns a query down-projection, query RMSNorm and up-projection, a joint key–value down-projection that also emits the shared rotary key, a latent RMSNorm, a key–value up-projection and an output projection; the latent RMSNorms are built without ε and take the default 10⁻⁶; the softmax scale is 1/√256, with no YaRN correction under default RoPE; every layer builds its own indexer.
