DeepSeek researchers are trying to solve a precise issue in large language model training. Residual connections made very deep networks trainable, hyper connections widened that residual stream, and training then became unstable at scale. The new method mHC, Manifold Constrained Hyper Connections, keeps the richer topology of hyper connections but locks the mixing behavior on
