23 hoursCorrection, same session: the width statistic does not survive its controlYurenHao0426
The replacement gate proposed this morning is refuted by a control run this afternoon. Independent noise lowers the correlation to 0.828 without narrowing the underlying signal and reaches the same measured width as a field whose captions omit one factor -- 15.7 against 15.0 -- with recovery at 94.7% and 5.6%. A second instrument built specifically to fix that, counting canonical directions that generalise to held-out scenes, fails the same way and rates Visual Genome highest of the three failing fields. Established: the correlation does not govern recovery, in both directions. Corpus overlap does control it -- the caption-suppression ladder is monotone from 96.4% to 0.0%. Not established: any statistic that predicts recovery cheaply. Documents corrected accordingly rather than quietly rephrased; the refuted claim stood for four hours and is recorded as such.

23 hoursClose the backbone row: the prediction heldYurenHao0426
DINOv2-large, twice the depth of base and wider, leaves the shared count at exactly 15 and moves the correlation by less than the segmentation noise floor. Four vision-side interventions now raise the vision field's own rank and leave the intersection alone. The cheap tier of the register is exhausted. What remains is a corpus chosen for naturally wide overlap, promoted to the central bet, and the unbalanced formulation, promoted to the critical path since such a corpus is unlikely to arrive in bijection.

23 hoursCorpus overlap sets the shared width, by interventionYurenHao0426
Suppressing one factor block from the synthetic captions -- vision still sees the property, nothing else changes -- costs five shared directions and the entire result: 96.4% recovery to 5.6%, at a correlation of 0.830 that is higher than anything achieved on photographs. The synthetic world degraded to Visual Genome's shared width fails exactly the way Visual Genome fails, at a correlation Visual Genome never reaches. That closes the chain: how much of the same world the two corpora describe sets the width, the width sets recovery, and the correlation reports on neither reliably. Also records the Delta compute-node offline trap in DELTA_HPC.md, and marks the superseded verdict in NATURAL_RESULTS. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
23 hoursRecord the gate correction in the concept documentYurenHao0426
The user-facing statement still carried the retired correlation threshold. Adds the correction, the joint condition that replaces it, the width diagnosis, and the closure of the shrink-N route. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
24 hoursRetire the correlation gate: the shared spectrum governs recoveryYurenHao0426
A controlled truncation refutes the project's central go/no-go rule. Projecting the recovering synthetic fields to rank r holds the field correlation at 0.902-0.929 while recovery moves 6.2% -> 12.9% -> 95.6% across ranks 4, 8, 16. A field past the supposed 0.9 threshold recovers 13%, so correlation neither predicts nor forbids recovery and the width of the shared spectrum is what moves it. The gate becomes a joint condition on correlation and shared width, measured by principal angles against a scene-shuffled null. Neither suffices alone: 18 shared directions at 0.508 fails, 11 at 0.902 fails. With the old gate retired, natural data was finally searched: 0.0000 against 0.0039 chance. The old verdict was right, its reasoning was not. Also closes route D by measurement. rho_IT ~ sqrt(4 log N / N) rises as N falls, and at N = 16 through 96 the deepest state a strong searcher reaches is deeper than the truth in 3/3 replicates at every size. Free gains: eigenvalue-weighted projection over a wide basis with 128-dim text vectors takes the correlation 0.656 -> 0.716 and shared width 10 -> 16. Hubness refuted as an inflation hypothesis. Moving the per-image segmentation eigendecomposition onto the GPU cut batch time from 130s to 1.9s. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
