Beyond the Parameter Monolith: Reconstructive Memories, Executable Skills, and Residual Assembly for Language Models

A. Bochkov

Language-model systems can separate contextual computation, persistent storage, and exact execution instead of updating all capabilities through one shared parameter system. We investigate FEM-ASM, a finite-element-method-inspired organization in which independently constructed document states and deterministic executable skills contribute typed proposals to a shared language-model state. An explicit residual operator reconciles proposals attached to common interface nodes. We evaluate this organization through controlled experiments and negative results rather than claiming a physical finite-element formulation of language. An attention-free Multi-Mesh prototype learns causal language modeling but does not establish competitive general capability. A versioned store contains 52,809 reconstructive memory elements near a 1.7-billion-floating-value budget; reconstruction is incomplete, with approximately 75\% token accuracy. Support-aware lexical indices make these elements addressable under provenance-controlled query construction. For executable arithmetic, positional result observations substantially improve neural rendering relative to a repeated global result vector, and output…
