From f75e1f0877c7d1b57299a68507d30eeb16bf3b4d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: YurenHao0426 Date: Sat, 1 Aug 2026 17:02:43 -0500 Subject: Correction, same session: the width statistic does not survive its control 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.
