arXiv:2610.10630v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training a compact model often needs far more memory than storing it, because the optimizer keeps its own records of past gradients. For a hyperdimensional classifier whose learned parameters are low-bit angles, which we call a \emph{phase memory}, these records take several times more memory than the model itself. We ask whether such a model can be trained while storing nothing but the model. The proposed method, Phase-HDC, turns each stored angle by at most one step per update, against the sign of its current gradient, and only when that grad
