6
+ ### Model Description
7
+
8
+ HRWKV7-hxa079-Qwen3-14B is an experimental hybrid architecture model that combines RWKV v7's linear attention mechanism with Group Query Attention (GQA) layers. Built upon the Qwen3-14B Instruct foundation, this model replaces most Transformer attention blocks with RWKV blocks while strategically maintaining some GQA layers to enhance performance on specific tasks.
9

10
+ - **Developed by:** OpenMOSE
11
+ - **Model type:** Hybrid Linear-Attention Language Model
12
+ - **Language(s):** Multilingual (inherited from Qwen3-14B)
13
+ - **License:** Apache-2.0
14
+ - **Base Model:** Qwen3-14B Instruct
15
+ - **Year:** 2025

+ ### Architecture Specifications
18
+
19
+ - **Architecture:** RWKV v7 based "hxa079" Architecture + Group Query Attention Hybrid
20
+ - **Total Layers:** 40 layers (L40D5120)
21
+ - 34 RWKV layers
22
+ - 6 GQA layers
23
+ - **Hidden Dimension:** 5120
24
+ - **Training Context Window:** 4096 tokens

26
+ ## Technical Innovation
27
+
28
+ ### RWKV "hxa079" Architecture
29
+
30
+ The model implements several key improvements over standard RWKV architectures:
31
+
32
+ 1. **Token Shift Removal**: Unlike traditional RWKV, the hxa079 variant removes token shifting mechanisms
33
+ 2. **GroupNorm Removal**: Eliminates GroupNorm layers for training stability
34
+ 3. **k_first Introduction**: Implements a novel k_first mechanism optimized for attention conversion
35
+
36
+ ### Hybrid Design Benefits
37
+
38
+ - **Linear Attention Inference**: RWKV blocks enable O(1) memory complexity during inference
39
+ - **Enhanced Needle Tasks**: Strategic placement of GQA layers significantly improves performance on needle-in-haystack retrieval tasks, addressing a known limitation of pure linear attention models
40
+ - **Implicit Position Encoding**: Interestingly, the model achieves better performance when RoPE (Rotary Position Embedding) is not applied to GQA layers, suggesting that RWKV blocks provide implicit positional encoding capabilities
41
+
42
+ ## Intended Use
43
+
44
+ This is an **experimental research model** designed to explore hybrid architectures combining linear and quadratic attention mechanisms. It is intended for:
45
+
46
+ - Research into efficient attention mechanisms
47
+ - Benchmarking hybrid architecture performance
48
+ - Exploring linear attention limitations and solutions
49
+ - Academic and industrial R&D purposes
50
+
51
+ ## Limitations
52
+
53
+ - **Experimental Status**: This model is in experimental stages and may exhibit unexpected behaviors
54
+ - **Context Window**: Limited to 4096 tokens during training, though RWKV architecture theoretically supports longer sequences
55
+ - **Performance Variability**: As a hybrid model, performance may vary significantly across different task types
56
+
57
+ ## Training Details
58
+
59
+ - **Training Context Window:** 4096 tokens
60
+ - **Base Model Initialization:** Weights initialized from Qwen3-14B Instruct
61
+ - **Architecture Conversion:** Transformer attention blocks systematically replaced with RWKV blocks, except for 6 strategically placed GQA layers
62
+
63
+ ## Evaluation
64
+
65
+ Performance evaluation is ongoing. The model shows promising results in:
66
+ - Maintaining base model capabilities while achieving linear attention efficiency
67
+ - Significantly improved needle-in-haystack task performance compared to pure RWKV architectures
68
+ - Competitive performance on standard language modeling benchmarks
