Record: Sliding Window + FP16 Embed + 10L + Muon WD + Overtone Init (val_bpb=1.1748) (#60)
* Add NTK Eval + Overtone Init submission (1.2160 BPB)
Train@1024 with overtone embedding init and phase-transition residual
mixing, eval@2048 with NTK-aware dynamic RoPE scaling. Mean val_bpb
1.2160 across 3 seeds (p=0.0012 for 0.0194-nat improvement over baseline).
