feat(lif): canonical in-bucket ordering + cross-path determinism envelope (§15.1)
TimingWheel::drain_due now sorts each bucket ascending by (t_ms, post, pre) before delivery, matching SpikeEvent::cmp on the heap path. This is the canonical in-bucket-ordering contract from ADR-154 §15.1 and is the first shipped piece of the cross-path determinism story. Measured on the AC-1 stimulus at N=1024: baseline : 195 782 spikes (heap + AoS dense subthreshold) optimized : 194 784 spikes (wheel + SoA + SIMD + active-set) rel_gap : 0.0051 (0.51 %) **Two new ADR §17 discoveries land with this commit:** #14 Leiden refinement delivers ARI = 1.000 on a hand-crafted 2-community planted SBM where multi-level Louvain collapses to 0.000. Direct vindication of Traag et al. 2019 on the exact failure mode from discovery #11. On default hub-heavy SBM Leiden scores 0.089 — modularity-resolution-limit territory, not a bug; CPM-based quality function named as next step. **First Louvain-family algorithm in the branch to meet a named SOTA target on ANY input.** (Landed via the feat/analysis-leiden merge in the prior commit; documentation added here.) #15 The bucket sort delivers canonical *dispatch order*; it does NOT deliver cross-path bit-exact *spike traces*. Root cause (new): the optimized path's active-set pruning is a *correctness deviation* from the baseline's dense update. Neurons near threshold under continuous dense updates can leak below it, but stay above under active-set updates. Both behaviours are correct-by-ADR; they produce genuinely different spike populations. True cross-path bit-exactness would require either running both paths with active-set off (bench-only config) or teaching the baseline the same active-set (defeats the purpose). The shipped contract: within-path bit-exact, cross-path ≤ 10 % spike-count envelope. The sort tightens intra-tick ordering; the envelope is what's realistic at the substrate level. Pattern summary updated: 7 of 12 pre-measurement diagnoses disproven; 2 unambiguous wins (items 6 adaptive cadence and 14 Leiden refinement), both sharing the pattern 'structure the problem on an orthogonal axis rather than pushing harder on the axis an earlier item ran into'. Changes: - src/lif/queue.rs: 10-line sort addition in drain_due with docstring pointing at §15.1 + the test. - tests/cross_path_determinism.rs (new, 139 LOC, 3/3 pass): asserts the 10% envelope on baseline vs optimized, plus within-path bit-exactness on both (regression tests that the sort is idempotent on already-canonical buckets). - ADR-154 §17 rows 14, 15 added. Pattern-summary paragraph updated to 2 wins / 7 disproven / 12 tested. All prior tests still green (AC-1 bit-exact still holds on both paths independently). Performance impact of the sort: under the 5% bench budget — k log k for k ≈ 5–50 events per bucket is on the order of a few hundred compares per drain. Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

| 11 | 17 (multi-level Louvain baseline) | Multi-level Louvain scores ARI = 0.000 on the default SBM vs level-1 greedy's ARI = 0.174 — the aggregation-based variant over-merges communities | **Louvain without Leiden's refinement phase collapses to a single super-community on hub-heavy SBMs.** By level 2 the aggregation absorbs structurally distinct communities into one super-node and there's no mechanism to un-merge. This is the documented failure mode Leiden's refinement (Traag et al. 2019) was specifically introduced to fix. The multi-level implementation is kept in `src/analysis/structural.rs::louvain_labels` with a docstring warning; AC-3a publishes both scores side-by-side so the future Leiden integration has a direct comparison row. Lesson: "more iterations" is not a monotonic improvement in community detection — without a well-connectedness guarantee, additional passes can strictly regress the signal. |
|
||||
| 12 | 19 (rate-histogram encoder A/B) | Rate-histogram and SDPA both score below random on AC-2: `SDPA = 0.072` vs `rate-histogram = 0.079` (delta +0.007 within tie band; random for 8 classes = 0.125) | **The encoder axis is empirically ruled out.** Controlled A/B on the same 8-protocol labeled corpus that disproved SDPA in item 10: the crudest possible alternative (raw per-neuron-per-time-bin spike counts, no projection, no attention) neither improved nor meaningfully regressed the result. If the simplest encoder preserves all the raster information and still scores ~ SDPA, the encoder is not what's losing the protocol-identity signal — the saturated substrate is. The ADR §13 three-axis framing for AC-2 (encoder / substrate / labels) now has one axis measurement-ruled-out; the remaining two are substrate (real FlyWire replaces synthetic SBM) and labels (raster-regime rather than stimulus-protocol). Both are research-level pivots, not engineering levers. |
|
||||
| 13 | 21 (raster-regime labels test) | Re-labeling the same corpus by `(dominant_class × spike_count_bucket)` instead of stimulus-protocol-id collapses to **2 distinct labels with max_share = 0.92** across 104 windows from 8 protocols. Naive precision@5 = 1.000 is trivially explained by class imbalance, not signal. | **The labels axis is also empirically ruled out.** Changing what the ground truth labels are from "stimulus protocol" to "raster regime" doesn't help because the substrate itself collapses every stimulus-driven window into essentially the same raster regime — one dominant class, one count bucket, ~92% of all windows. The finding *is* the content: at the N=1024 synthetic SBM scale, there is no label scheme that carries enough diversity for AC-2 precision to mean anything. Of the three AC-2 remediation axes named in item 10 (encoder / substrate / labels), **items 12 and 13 eliminate encoder and labels; substrate is the sole remaining lever.** That is real FlyWire v783 ingest replacing the synthetic SBM — no longer a research question, a data-ingest engineering item (see §13 "Streaming FlyWire v783 ingest" which is shipped but fixture-only; the real-data path still requires downloading the 2 GB release). |
|
||||
| 14 | Leiden merge | Leiden's three-phase (local moves → refinement → aggregate) recovers **ARI = 1.000** on a hand-crafted 2-community planted SBM where multi-level Louvain collapses to ARI = 0.000. On the default hub-heavy SBM Leiden scores ARI = 0.089 (modularity resolution limit territory). | **Traag et al. 2019's refinement phase fixes the exact Louvain collapse from discovery #11.** The planted-SBM perfect recovery is a direct vindication — refinement works when the modularity landscape has a clear structure for it to find. On default-SBM the low ARI is a modularity-resolution-limit artefact (Fortunato & Barthélemy 2007), not a Leiden implementation bug; the implementation tracks the best-modularity partition across levels as a belt-and-braces workaround. CPM-based quality function (Traag's own default in `leidenalg`) is the documented next step to escape the resolution limit. This is the first Louvain-family algorithm in the branch that meets a named SOTA target on *any* input. |
|
||||
| 15 | Bucket sort + cross-path test | `TimingWheel::drain_due` now sorts each bucket ascending by `(t_ms, post, pre)` before delivery, matching `SpikeEvent::cmp` on the heap path. On the AC-1 stimulus at N=1024: baseline produces 195 782 spikes, optimized produces 194 784 — **~0.5 % spike-count divergence** that persists despite the sort. | **The sort delivers canonical *dispatch order* on the wheel; it does NOT deliver cross-path bit-exact *spike traces*.** Root cause (new): the optimized path's active-set pruning is a *correctness deviation* from the baseline's dense subthreshold update — neurons near threshold under continuous dense updates can leak below it, but stay above under active-set updates. Both behaviours are correct-by-ADR; they produce genuinely different spike populations. `tests/cross_path_determinism.rs` gates on the ADR-154 §15.1 10 % envelope (measured 0.5 %, well inside) rather than bit-exactness, which would require either running both paths with active-set off (bench-only) or teaching the baseline the same active-set (defeats the purpose). The shipped contract is: within-path bit-exact, cross-path ≤ 10 % spike-count envelope. |
|

The discoveries form a pattern: every "next lever named in the ADR" ultimately required an empirical test. **Six** of the ten pre-measurement diagnoses tested on this branch proved wrong (items 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13). **The sole unambiguous win (item 6, adaptive cadence) was an orthogonal axis — schedule of detection, not algorithm of detection.** That insight is the deepest lesson the branch has to offer and is probably generalisable: when several structurally-different remediations all miss the same target, the target is likely on a different axis than the one being searched.

The discoveries form a pattern: every "next lever named in the ADR" ultimately required an empirical test. **Seven** of the twelve pre-measurement diagnoses tested on this branch proved wrong (items 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 15). **Two unambiguous wins: item 6 (adaptive cadence, 4.29× saturated-regime speedup) and item 14 (Leiden refinement, perfect ARI on planted SBM where Louvain collapsed).** Both shared a pattern: structure the problem on an orthogonal axis rather than pushing harder on the axis an earlier item ran into. Adaptive cadence changed *when* the detector runs, not *what* it does; Leiden's refinement changed *what* gets aggregated, not *how often* aggregation runs. When several structurally-different remediations all miss the same target, the target is likely on a different axis than the one being searched — and that's the rule that's scored 2-for-2 across 15 tested items now.
|
||||
|
||||
Applied to AC-2: five structurally-different remediations have been tested on the same SBM substrate — brute-force kNN (item 2 baseline); DiskANN (item 8); expanded-label corpus (item 10); rate-histogram encoder (item 12); raster-regime labels (item 13). All five plateau at or below the random baseline. Three of the four axes the ADR §13 framing named as potential fixes (encoder / corpus-size / labels) are now empirically ruled out. **The remaining axis is substrate** — real FlyWire v783 ingest replacing the synthetic SBM. That is no longer a research question but a data-ingest engineering item: the streaming-loader code exists (commit 11, `src/connectome/flywire/streaming.rs`) and passes fixture tests; what remains is downloading the real 2 GB release and re-running AC-2 against it. When that happens, AC-2 either hits its SOTA target or the final axis is disproven too — at which point the claim itself needs revision.

//! ADR-154 §15.1 — cross-path determinism, measured.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! AC-1 (shipped) asserts *within-path* bit-exactness: two repeat
|
||||
//! runs on the same seeds + same stimulus produce identical spike
|
||||
//! traces within the baseline path (heap + AoS) and within the
|
||||
//! optimized path (wheel + SoA + SIMD), independently. ADR-154 §15.1
|
||||
//! names *cross-path* bit-exactness — two different LIF paths
|
||||
//! producing identical traces on the same input — as a follow-up.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! This commit ships a **canonical in-bucket-ordering contract** on
|
||||
//! the wheel path: `TimingWheel::drain_due` now sorts each bucket
|
||||
//! ascending by `(t_ms, post, pre)` before delivery, matching
|
||||
//! `SpikeEvent::cmp` on the heap path. With that contract in place,
|
||||
//! the wheel's dispatch order is deterministically equivalent to
|
||||
//! the heap's on the same set of delivered events.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! **But cross-path bit-exact spike traces are NOT delivered by the
|
||||
//! sort alone.** Measurement (15th discovery — ADR-154 §17 item 14):
|
||||
//! baseline and optimized produce spike counts that diverge by ~0.5
|
||||
//! % (195 782 vs 194 784 on AC-1 stimulus at N=1024). The divergence
|
||||
//! is NOT an FP-ordering artefact but a legitimate correctness
|
||||
//! deviation: the optimized path uses active-set pruning (skip
|
||||
//! subthreshold updates for neurons not recently perturbed), while
|
||||
//! the baseline updates every neuron every tick. Neurons on the
|
||||
//! edge of the threshold that leak below it under continuous dense
|
||||
//! updates stay above under active-set updates — both behaviours are
|
||||
//! *correct-by-ADR*, neither is a regression, and they produce
|
||||
//! genuinely different spike populations.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! The shipped contract therefore is:
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! - Within-path: bit-exact (both paths). Verified here.
|
||||
//! - Across paths: spike counts agree within **10 % envelope** (the
|
||||
//! cross-path tolerance ADR-154 §15.1 already declared). The
|
||||
//! bucket sort tightens intra-tick ordering from "insertion order"
|
||||
//! to "canonical (t_ms, post, pre)" but does not erase the
|
||||
//! active-set behavioural divergence. Verified here.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! True cross-path bit-exactness would require either (a) running
|
||||
//! both paths with active-set off, which is a bench-only config, or
|
||||
//! (b) teaching the baseline the same active-set, which defeats the
|
||||
//! baseline's role as the dense reference.
