From ad8819a63e632e0ba7364c56127e1f31b832530f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: YurenHao0426 Date: Sat, 1 Aug 2026 16:37:01 -0500 Subject: Close the backbone row: the prediction held 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.
