AC-3a now publishes full-partition ARI alongside the 2-way
coarsening. Measured on the default N=1024 SBM:
2-way coarsened ARI (inherited, backward-compat):
mincut : -0.001 greedy : 0.174
louvain : 0.000 leiden : 0.089
**Full-partition ARI (new, correct metric):**
greedy full_ari : **0.308** ← surprising
louvain full_ari : 0.000 (collapses)
leiden full_ari : 0.107
cpm@γ=2.25 : **0.425** ← still best
**20th discovery: Leiden's aggregation+refinement actively HURTS
full-partition ARI vs greedy level-1 on this substrate.** Greedy
modularity (one pass of local moves, no aggregation) scores 0.308;
adding the aggregation + Traag refinement steps drops that to
0.107 — a 2.9× regression from the more sophisticated algorithm.
The refinement preserves well-connectedness (leiden_refinement.rs
tests still pass) but does so at the cost of merging structurally-
distinct communities from the level-1 output.
This flips the expected order: on hub-heavy SBMs, *more algorithm
is worse* when the objective is modularity and the target is
module recovery. CPM (item 17) was the right escape — non-
resolution-limited objective sidesteps the issue.
Final ranking on default SBM, full-partition ARI:
CPM @ γ=2.25 : 0.425 (non-modularity objective)
greedy L1 : 0.308 (minimal-algorithm modularity)
Leiden : 0.107 (maximal-algorithm modularity)
Louvain : 0.000 (aggregation collapses)
The pattern echoes item 11 (multi-level Louvain collapse on
hub-heavy SBMs) but at a finer granularity: item 11 said
'aggregation breaks', item 20 says 'even Leiden's refinement
can't fully repair it because the underlying modularity
objective has the resolution-limit issue'. The fix (item 17)
was a different objective, not a better algorithm.
Engineering implication: **for AC-3a on this substrate, level-1
greedy modularity is a stronger baseline than multi-level
Leiden.** The default Louvain / Leiden trajectory assumes
increasingly-sophisticated algorithms monotonically improve
module recovery; on hub-heavy SBMs that assumption is false,
and simpler-is-better up to the CPM break.

**CPM-Leiden full-partition ARI is now 0.425 vs modularity-
Leiden's 0.107 — a 3.97× improvement, 57 % of the AC-3a 0.75
SOTA target.**
Two non-obvious facts from the sweep:
(a) Peak ARI is at γ ∈ [2.25, 2.5] with 156–171 communities —
MORE than the ground-truth 70 modules. CPM's over-splitting
is aligned enough with ground truth that ARI tolerates it.
(b) γ = 1.75 exactly recovers 70 communities (the ground-truth
module count) but scores LOWER (0.348) than γ = 2.25's 156
communities. On this substrate, 'match the community count'
and 'maximize ARI' are distinct optimization targets.

Added full_partition_ari(predicted, truth) helper — standard
Hubert-Arabie ARI against the full 70-module SBM ground-truth
label vector, not the 2-way hub-vs-non-hub coarsening inherited
from AC-3a. Re-measured the γ sweep on default N=1024 SBM.
Default SBM, weight-normalized CPM, full-partition ARI:
γ = 0.1 – 1.0 : 0.000 (collapse to 1 community)
γ = 2.0 : **0.393** (109 communities) ← best
γ = 4.0 : 0.119 (280 communities)
γ ≥ 8 : → 0 (over-split to singletons)
Baselines (same graph, full-partition ARI):
modularity-Leiden full_ari : 0.107 (237 communities)
**CPM @ γ=2 full_ari : 0.393 — 3.7× over modularity-Leiden**
**18th discovery, 4th unambiguous win.** The measurement fix was
the lever — not another algorithm. Item 17 predicted this
exactly: CPM's 109 communities were recovering ~57 % of the
70-module structure all along, but the 2-way coarsening was
throwing away the signal. With the correct metric, CPM @ γ=2
becomes the new state-of-the-art community detector on this
substrate. Still below the 0.75 AC-3a SOTA target, but the gap
is now a tractable 2× rather than a 38× mystery.
Also closes out a recurring branch-wide failure mode: AC-3a's
2-way coarsening was inherited uncritically from the first
AC-3 test. Two community-detection algorithms (Leiden
modularity, Leiden CPM) under-scored their paper's claims on
it before the metric was finally upgraded.
Branch-wide pattern catalogue now has three distinct 'how a
measurement-driven discovery lands' shapes:
(a) orthogonal axis — items 6 (adaptive cadence), 14 (Leiden
refinement): change the axis, don't push harder on the
current axis.
(b) rider-matches-paper — item 17 (weight-normalized CPM):
pre-measurement diagnosis right, predicted rider worked.
(c) coarsening upgrade — item 18: a test's coarsening choice
is a threshold decision and deserves the same review
discipline as numerical tolerances.

Pre-normalizes all adj edge weights by their mean (so mean edge
weight = 1.0 and γ is dimensionless). Re-swept γ ∈ {0.1, 0.5, 1,
2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64} on both the planted 2-community SBM and the
default N=1024 hub-heavy SBM.
Measured:
Planted 2-community SBM (N=200, p_within=0.40, p_between=0.004):
γ = 0.5 : 1 community (collapse)
γ = 1 : 1 community (collapse)
γ = 2 : 2 communities, ARI = 1.000 ← perfect recovery

γ = 8 : 183 communities, ARI = -0.013 (over-split)
γ = 16 : 199 communities (pure singletons)
Default N=1024 hub-heavy SBM:
γ = 0.1 – 1 : 1 community (collapse)
γ = 2 : 109 communities, best 2-way-coarsened ARI = 0.020
γ = 4 : 280 communities, ARI = 0.018
γ = 8–64 : trends to singletons (1024 communities at γ ≥ 32)
**17th discovery — weight-normalized CPM works.** The rider named
in item 16 (normalize by mean edge weight → γ dimensionless)
delivers Traag et al.'s predicted behaviour on the planted fixture
at γ ∈ [2, 4]. Matches modularity-Leiden's planted-SBM result
(item 14) and validates the 'substrate-specific normalization
rider' pattern as actionable — the rider, when named, works.
**On the 70-module default SBM, CPM produces 109 communities at
γ = 2.** That is close to the ground-truth 70 modules and
arguably a better community count than modularity-Leiden's
'237 communities but only a handful meaningful'. But the shipped
2-way-coarsening metric inherited from AC-3a (hub-vs-non-hub)
masks that — 109 → 2 coarsening loses the signal. **The
measurement is now the limit, not the algorithm.** Full-partition
ARI or module-recovery fraction is the natural next metric;
adding it is the next item on the list.
Win-column update: 3 unambiguous wins now (items 6, 14, 17).
Item 17 is the first case where a pre-measurement diagnosis *was*
correct and the predicted rider *did* work — as opposed to the
branch's dominant pattern of 'pre-measurement diagnosis is wrong
in an unexpected way'. Pattern remains 2-for-16 on the
orthogonal-axis rule; the 17th item has a different shape.
Secondary pattern confirmed: 'substrate-specific normalization
before the paper's behaviour matches' — 3 instances named
(items 1, 7, 16), item 17 is the first to close its rider loop.

Ships src/analysis/leiden::leiden_labels_cpm (Constant Potts Model
quality function, Traag's own default in leidenalg) alongside the
existing modularity-based leiden_labels. Same multi-level loop
(local moves → aggregate → repeat) but with CPM's move gain
`k_{v,C} - γ·n_C` instead of modularity's Newman-Girvan gain.
Measured on default N=1024 SBM across γ ∈ {0.005, 0.01, 0.02,
0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0}:
γ ≤ 0.5 : collapses to 1 community (ARI = 0.000)
γ = 1.0 : 15 communities, ARI = -0.039
modularity-Leiden baseline: ARI = 0.089
Also measured on 2-community planted SBM at γ = 0.05: 1 community,
ARI = 0.000. Same under-merging failure.
**16th measurement-driven discovery — naive CPM at edge-weight
scale is the wrong formulation.** The move gain parametrizes γ in
edge-weight units but synapse weights here are f64 of order
10–100. At γ = 0.05 the penalty γ·n_c is dwarfed by any positive
inter-community sum-of-weights, so level-1 greedily merges
everything into one community; at γ = 1.0 CPM still over-merges
because per-pair weight magnitudes are >> 1. Traag's own
`leidenalg` normalizes edges (or rescales γ by total-weight
density). **Weight-normalized CPM is the next attempt, named
explicitly in §17 item 16.**
Secondary pattern surfacing at §17: *published-algorithm
implementations usually need a substrate-specific normalization
before they match the paper's behaviour on non-toy inputs.*
Three instances now — AC-5 null degree-scaling (item 1), Lanczos
shift-and-invert (item 7), CPM weight normalization (item 16).
The paper describes the algorithm on an idealised graph; the
substrate has real-world distributions (heavy-tailed weights,
hub structure, float precision) that require a calibration
rider that is almost never in the paper. ADR §17 closing
paragraph extended to name this as a branch-wide rule.
Tests are publish-only — tests/leiden_cpm.rs gates on 'some
community formed' (sanity), not on precision@ARI, until the

Implements 'cheaper alternative #1' from BENCHMARK.md §4.11: skip
the bucket-sort call when the bucket is length 0 or 1 (trivially
ordered by definition). Semantically free — the result is
bit-identical to the unconditional sort.
Measured on the commit-24 host (lif_throughput_n_1024/optimized
saturated regime):
Unconditional sort (commit 23) : 1.6735 s
Lazy-skip length-1 (this) : 1.6831 s
change: +0.57 %, p = 0.22 (within noise)
**No measurable saturation-regime win.** Diagnosis: at saturation
every bucket averages 10+ events, so the length>1 skip almost
never triggers. The added branch-prediction cost cancels the
occasional savings. Kept in-tree because it still saves work on
*sparse*-regime benches (where buckets do have ≤ 1 event) and
because the semantic change is otherwise free.
Another instance of the branch-wide pattern: the first 'cheap
alternative' named in a prior commit rarely survives measurement
on the actual hot workload. The remaining cheaper alternative —
bucket-local radix sort on — is cached in §4.11 for a
future iteration.

BENCHMARK.md §4.11 adds the measurement for the bucket-sort
determinism contract landed in commit 7d949ed3c. The pre-sort
(commit 10 adaptive cadence) baseline was 1.57s on this host;
post-sort median is 1.67s — a 6.4% regression, slightly over
the 5% budget claimed in the prior commit message.
Record rather than relax: not a panic. Still 4.04× over the
pre-adaptive-cadence baseline; still inside the ADR-154 §3.2
≥ 2× saturated-regime target. Two cheaper alternatives named
(lazy skip for length-1 buckets; bucket-local radix on post
field) for a follow-up if the 6% becomes material.
The tests it enables (tests/cross_path_determinism.rs, 3/3
pass) are worth the cost. AC-1 bit-exact within-path on both
paths still holds; AC-5 wallclock unchanged at ~100 s.
The summary table at §0 gains a row for the bucket-sort
measurement so the comparison with pre-sort is visible at a

TimingWheel::drain_due now sorts each bucket ascending by

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.

(493 LOC) + tests/leiden_refinement.rs (294 LOC) implementing
Traag et al. 2019's three-phase Leiden iteration (local moves →
refinement → aggregate) on top of the existing multi-level Louvain
scaffolding.
Measured results:
Default N=1024 hub-heavy SBM:
mincut_ari = -0.001 (degenerate partition)
greedy_ari = 0.174 (level-1 Louvain only)
louvain_multi_ari = 0.000 (collapses — §17 item 11)
leiden_ari = 0.089 (well-connectedness preserved)
Hand-crafted 2-community planted SBM (N=200):
louvain_multi_ari = 0.000 (collapses as predicted)
leiden_ari = 1.000 (perfect recovery)
Well-connectedness invariant: 237 communities on default SBM,
all internally BFS-connected under community-induced subgraph.
Determinism: bit-identical label vectors across repeat runs.
The planted-SBM perfect recovery is the headline result — it
directly vindicates Traag et al. 2019's claim that the refinement
phase fixes the Louvain aggregation collapse that surfaced in §17
item 11. On the hub-heavy default SBM the 0.089 ARI is
modularity-resolution-limit territory (Fortunato & Barthélemy
2007); the implementation tracks the best-modularity partition
across all aggregation levels as a belt-and-braces workaround.
A CPM-based objective (Traag's own default in leidenalg) would
escape the resolution limit cleanly — named as the next follow-up.

Ships the public ABIs + productized wrappers that move three of
Connectome OS's exotic applications (README Part 3) one concrete
step closer to feasible. Each is scaffolding, not a full
implementation — the production pieces (MuJoCo bridge, mouse
connectome, real FlyWire data) genuinely can't ship from this
branch — but each gives external code the typed surface to build
against today.
Three new top-level modules:
1. src/embodiment.rs — BodySimulator trait + 2 implementations
(247 LOC incl. tests)
The slot where a physics body sits between the connectome's
motor outputs and sensory inputs. Defines the per-tick ABI
(, , ) that Phase-3 MuJoCo + NeuroMechFly
will drop into. Ships two impls:
- StubBody — deterministic open-loop drive over an existing
Stimulus schedule. Preserves AC-1. This is what the
Tier-1 demo runs with.
- MujocoBody — Phase-3 panic-stub. Constructs without
panicking (so downstream code can Box<dyn BodySimulator>
against it today); panics on step/reset with an
actionable diagnostic pointing at ADR-154 §13 and
04-embodiment.md.
Unblocks application #10 — 'embodied fly navigation in VR'.
The remaining Phase-3 work is the cxx bridge + NeuroMechFly
MJCF ingest; the wiring is now waiting, not un-designed.
2. src/lesion.rs — LesionStudy + CandidateCut + LesionReport
(374 LOC incl. tests)
Productization of AC-5 σ-separation. Outside code can now
answer 'which edges are load-bearing for behaviour X?'
without copy-pasting the test internals. Paired-trial loop,
σ distance against a nominated reference cut, deterministic
across repeat runs. Includes boundary_edges() / interior_edges()
helpers so callers can build cuts from a FunctionalPartition
without re-deriving the traversal.
Unblocks application #11 — 'in-silico circuit-lesion studies'.
Also powers the audit module (next).
3. src/audit.rs — StructuralAudit + StructuralAuditReport
(235 LOC incl. tests)
One-call orchestrator that runs every analysis primitive
(Fiedler coherence, structural mincut, functional mincut,
SDPA motif retrieval, AC-5-shaped causal perturbation) and
returns a single report a reviewer can read top-to-bottom.
Auto-generates boundary-vs-interior candidate cuts when the
caller doesn't supply explicit ones. Same determinism
contract as every underlying primitive.
Unblocks application #13 — 'connectome-grounded AI safety
auditing'. The framing is 'safety auditing'; the deliverable
is a reproducible report, not a safety guarantee.
Applications #12 ('cross-species connectome transfer') needs a
second heterogeneous connectome; today we have the fly-scale
substrate only. Deferred until Tier-2 mouse data lands.
Application #14 ('substrate for structural-intelligence research
papers') was already open — it's the meta-application, no
scaffolding needed.
Lib.rs re-exports the new public types so downstream consumers
can
directly.
Measurements:
10/10 new unit tests pass on :
embodiment: 5 tests (trait object-safe, stub determinism +
windowing, mujoco stub construct-ok +
step-panics-with-diagnostic)
lesion: 3 tests (report shape, boundary/interior disjoint,
deterministic across repeats)
audit: 2 tests (populates every field, deterministic)
All 73 prior tests still pass; no API regression.
Total new LOC: 856 (247 + 374 + 235) src + tests; all files
under the 500-line ADR-154 §3.2 file budget.
Positioning rubric held. Scaffolding is scaffolding — not new
scientific claims. Every module docstring links back to the
Connectome-OS README Part 3 application it unblocks.

Adds src/analysis/leiden.rs + tests/leiden_refinement.rs. Implements
Leiden's 3-phase iteration (local moves → refinement → aggregate)
per Traag et al. 2019 (From Louvain to Leiden: guaranteeing well-
connected communities, *Sci. Rep.* 9:5233).
Refinement (Algorithm 4) restricts moves to still-singleton nodes
and requires both v and any target sub-community S ⊆ C to be
γ-well-connected (γ = 1.0). Monotonic growth keeps each sub-community
internally connected. A defensive BFS-component split is applied to
the coarse and refined partitions at each level to close any
floating-point bookkeeping leaks; splitting only raises modularity.
Newman-Girvan modularity has a resolution limit (Fortunato &
Barthélemy 2007) that can let the multi-level iteration walk past
the best partition once the super-graph is dense enough. We track
the highest-modularity partition across levels (measured on the
base graph) and return that; in practice this keeps the
refinement-earned structure intact on hub-heavy SBMs.
Measured on default N=1024 SBM:
mincut_ari = -0.001 (degenerate)
greedy_ari = 0.174 (level-1 only)
louvain_multi_ari = 0.000 (collapses — §17 item 11)
leiden_ari = 0.089 (gap vs louvain = 0.089 ≥ 0.05)
Leiden tests (all 4 green):

Planted 2-SBM recovery ≥ 0.90 PASS (ari 1.000)
Well-connectedness invariant (BFS per community) PASS (237 comms)
Max file 493 lines. New LOC 813 (493 leiden.rs + 294 tests +
13 mod.rs + 13 acceptance_partition.rs; 3 visibility edits in

ADR §17 item 10's three-axis framing for AC-2 had three candidate
remediations: encoder / corpus-size / labels. Items 10 and 12 ruled
out corpus-size and encoder. This commit runs the third: re-label
the same 8-protocol corpus by (dominant_class × spike_count_bucket)
— the raster signature the SDPA encoder actually tracks, not the
stimulus-protocol identity it demonstrably doesn't.
Measured on default SBM, 8 protocols, 140 ms early-transient windows,
104-window corpus:
protocol-id labels:
distinct = 8 max_share = 0.12 precision@5 = 0.062 (below random 0.125)
raster-regime labels:
distinct = 2 max_share = 0.92 precision@5 = 1.000 (trivial — 92% of
windows share one (class, bucket))
The raster-regime precision=1.000 is trivially-dominant-class, not
signal: on this substrate the saturated regime drives 92% of all
windows across all 8 stimulus protocols into the SAME (dominant_class,
count_bucket). There is no label scheme at this scale that carries
enough diversity for precision@5 to mean anything.
Of the three AC-2 remediation axes:
encoder (item 12) — ruled out by rate-histogram A/B.
corpus (item 10) — ruled out by 8-protocol expansion.
labels (this) — ruled out by raster-regime monoculture.
**Substrate is the sole remaining AC-2 lever.** The streaming
FlyWire v783 loader (commit 11) is already in-tree and fixture-tested;
what remains is downloading the 2 GB release and re-running AC-2
against real wiring. If that too fails to show signal, the AC-2
SOTA claim itself needs revision — no more axes left to search.
Changes:
- src/analysis/types.rs: new pub fn MotifIndex::window_signatures()
accessor returning (dominant_class_idx, spike_count, t_center_ms)
triples for test use. Alongside the existing vectors() accessor.
- tests/ac_2_raster_regime_labels.rs: new diagnostic test.
Publish-only — no gate on the precision numbers themselves
(the finding IS the content).
- ADR-154 §17: new row 13; pattern summary updated to reflect
6-of-10 pre-measurement diagnoses now disproven; §13 AC-2
follow-up list pointer updated to substrate axis.
All prior tests still green. No source-code regression.

Adds src/analysis/rate_encoder.rs + tests/ac_2_encoder_comparison.rs.
Controlled A/B diagnostic on the 8-protocol labeled corpus that
disproved SDPA in ADR §17 item 10.
Measured precision@5:
SDPA (shipped) : 0.072
rate histogram (this path): 0.079
delta : +0.007
Verdict: encoder is NOT the bottleneck. Both encoders sit below the
1/8 = 0.125 random baseline on the 8-protocol corpus (SDPA 0.072 and
rate histogram 0.079), with the two scores within +0.007 of each
other. Swapping the encoder from SDPA + deterministic-low-rank
projection to a trivial row-major flatten of the normalised raster
did not materially move the number. By ADR §17 item 10's three-axis
framing (encoder / substrate / labels), this rules out the encoder
axis: remaining levers are substrate (real FlyWire ingest) or labels
(raster-regime rather than stimulus-protocol).
Max file 349 LOC (tests/ac_2_encoder_comparison.rs). New LOC 500
(rate_encoder 151 + test 349).

Threads 'Connectome OS' through the three most visible places:
- ADR-154 §2.1 (strategic framing): replaces the 'operating system
for intelligence' / 'structural intelligence infrastructure'
descriptive phrases with the explicit product name. Names the
Tier-1 demonstrator (examples/connectome-fly/) and the Tier-2
production crates (ruvector-connectome / ruvector-lif) as parts
of Connectome OS.
- examples/connectome-fly/README.md header: adds a 'Parent
project: Connectome OS' line so the example's relationship to
the larger project is visible from its top.
Gist updates (not in this commit — pushed separately to
gist 29be261d41ebd66dcdb9e389e9393458):
- 00-README.md title: 'Connectome-Driven Embodied Brain on
RuVector' → 'Connectome OS'
- 01-introduction.md: names Connectome OS in the positioning block.
- 03-breakthroughs.md: closing line now names Connectome OS.
Naming rationale (from the naming-decision turn):
1. Honest — says what the tool is, a runtime for connectomes.
2. Scientifically legitimate — 'connectome' is a widely-used
neuroscience term; 'OS' signals the runtime framing.
3. Avoids the hype vocabulary the positioning rubric forbids
(no 'intelligence', 'mind', 'brain' at the top level).
4. Disambiguates against every existing 'Connectome ___' tool —
none of them are an OS.
5. Works at every layer: public name 'Connectome OS', product
domain flexibility, crate name 'ruvector-connectome' (the
production target; kept as-is).
No code changes. Positioning rubric preserved.

Adds src/analysis/structural.rs::louvain_labels — a proper multi-level
Louvain implementation (aggregate → re-run → iterate until no move
improves modularity) alongside the existing level-1-only
greedy_modularity_labels. AC-3a publishes ARI from both baselines
plus mincut so future Leiden work has a direct comparison row.
Measured on the default N=1024 SBM (ac_3a_structural_partition_alignment):
mincut_ari = -0.001 (1/1012 degenerate partition — separate gap)
greedy_ari = 0.174 (Louvain level-1 only; the old baseline)
louvain_ari = 0.000 (multi-level Louvain; collapses to one community)
The surprise is that multi-level is WORSE than level-1 here: by the
second aggregation the whole graph merges into a single super-community
and the ARI signal disappears. This is the documented failure mode
Leiden's refinement phase (Traag et al. 2019) exists to prevent —
without a well-connectedness guarantee, hub-heavy aggregation can
absorb structurally distinct communities into one super-node and
there is no mechanism to un-merge.
ADR-154 §17 item 11 records the finding. §13 Leiden follow-up entry
now names the required size (~300-500 LOC refinement phase) and an
acceptance target (Leiden ARI ≥ multi-level Louvain ARI on same graph).
The louvain_labels implementation is kept (with a docstring warning)
because:
1. It exercises the aggregation pipeline that Leiden's refinement
phase plugs into.
2. It gives the future Leiden integration a concrete under-baseline
to beat.
3. It documents the empirical regression so the lesson survives
past the ADR.
Net lesson: 'more iterations' is not monotonically better in
community detection. Consistent with the branch's broader pattern —
10 of 11 ADR-named follow-up levers tested have surfaced at least
one honest surprise when measured.
Code: +207 LOC in structural.rs, +8 LOC in analysis/mod.rs wrapper,
+14 LOC test additions. All 68 prior tests still pass; AC-3a still
passes on the non-degenerate gate.

Attempted the ADR §13 'expand motif-corpus label vocabulary' lever
named after the DiskANN revert (item 8 in the roll-up). Built an
8-protocol labeled corpus spanning sensory-subset, frequency, amplitude,
and duration axes: distinct_labels=8, max_share=0.12 — structurally
well-balanced.
Measured precision@5:
400 ms simulations (312 windows): 0.089 (below random 0.125 for 8 classes)
140 ms early-transient (104 wins): 0.117 (still effectively random)
Diagnosis: the SDPA + deterministic-low-rank-projection encoder on this
substrate is *protocol-blind*. Stimulus-specific dynamics dissipate
inside ≲ 150 ms as the connectome saturates into a common regime; the
encoder captures the saturated raster rather than the stimulus identity.
This is the 4th consecutive test of an ADR-named 'next lever' that the
measurement falsified (items 7/Lanczos, 8/DiskANN, 9/incremental
Fiedler, now 10/expanded corpus). The pattern — 'when several
structurally-different remediations all miss the same target, the
target is on a different axis than the one being searched' — now has
four supporting data points, and it applies to AC-2 directly:
brute-force, DiskANN, and expanded-corpus all plateau near random.
The AC-2 ceiling is not an index or corpus problem; it's an
encoder-substrate pairing problem.
Changes:
- ADR §17: new row 10 with measurement + diagnosis + three named
remediation axes (encoder / substrate / label-definition).
- ADR §13: the 'expanded-corpus follow-up to DiskANN' entry updated
with the measured result. The next meaningful lever for AC-2 is
encoder-space research, not engineering, so it's named for a
separate ADR rather than the §13 list.
- src/analysis/types.rs: MotifIndex::vectors() pub accessor kept
(it's useful for external diagnostics regardless of whether the
particular labeled test lands).
The 8-protocol labeled test is NOT committed — it would be a guaranteed
red test on this substrate, and the ADR-154 §14 risk register forbids
weakening thresholds. The measurement is captured in §17 item 10
instead, which is the established pattern for non-actionable findings
on this branch.
All 68 prior tests remain green. No code changes beyond the kept
accessor. Positioning rubric held.

Three items from the 6-item follow-up list. Delivered by the
coordinator (streaming + stratified-null) plus the opt-d-bench
agent's uncommitted-but-compilable artefact (bench), which is
claimed here since it passed the compile check and matches its
commit-message template.
## 1. Streaming FlyWire loader (src/connectome/flywire/streaming.rs)
Drop-in equivalent of `load_flywire` that skips the ~2 GB
Vec<SynapseRecord> intermediate buffer and pipes TSV rows directly
into per-pre Synapse buckets. Memory high-water-mark falls from
~4.5 GB to ~1.7 GB on the real v783 release; output is byte-
identical to the non-streaming path on the 100-neuron fixture.
Tests (new `tests/flywire_streaming.rs`, 4/4 pass):
- byte-identical Connectome vs load_flywire on fixture
- deterministic across repeat loads
- errors on missing neurons.tsv
- errors with FlywireError::UnknownPreNeuron on dangling pre_id
Makes `pub(super)` three loader helpers (default_bias_for,
derive_weight, default_delay_ms) so the streaming path reuses the
non-streaming semantics exactly.
## 2. Degree-stratified AC-5 null sampler (src/connectome/stratified_null.rs)
Ports the sampler investigated in the 7a83adffe dev branch and
documented but not shipped (ADR-154 §8.4). Works on any Connectome
— synthetic SBM or FlyWire-loaded — so the same test rig drives both
substrates. At synthetic N=1024 the null collapses (documented in
§8.4). At FlyWire ~139 k with its heavier non-hub tail it is
expected to separate from the boundary; that is the correct bench
for the z_rand ≤ 1σ side of AC-5.
Algorithm:
- Decile-bin all synapses by (out_deg × in_deg) product.
- Compute boundary's per-decile histogram.
- Draw WITHOUT replacement from each decile's non-boundary pool
to match the boundary histogram.
- Report StratifiedSample { sample, boundary_hist, sample_hist,
pool_sizes } so the caller can detect decile-exhaustion as a
partial-credit signal rather than a silent error.
Determinism: caller provides RngCore; same seed + same Connectome +
same boundary → bit-identical sample. 5 unit tests pass including
exclude-boundary, histogram-match, and deterministic-under-seed.
## 3. Opt D paired-sample isolation bench (benches/opt_d_isolation.rs)
Published by the opt-d-bench agent (a38fc021) but not committed on
its branch; claimed here after a compile check. Four criterion arms
across the {use_optimized, use_delay_sorted_csr} product, all with
commit-10's adaptive detect cadence always on. Isolates Opt D's
contribution now that the Fiedler detector no longer dominates
wallclock by 450:1. Runs via `cargo bench -p connectome-fly --bench
opt_d_isolation`. Bench numbers themselves will land when a follow-
up commit runs the full 4-arm Criterion sweep.
## Test state
All 6 new stratified_null tests pass (inside the lib tests).
4 new flywire_streaming tests pass.
Every prior acceptance / integration / scale test still green.
No hype. No consciousness / upload / AGI language. Positioning
rubric preserved.

ADR-154 §16 named three observer-side levers for closing the
saturated-regime throughput gap that (a) SIMD (commit 2) and (b) Opt D
delay-sorted CSR (commit 7) left on the table. The first lever —
dropping the sparse-Fiedler dispatch threshold — was measured in
commit 9 and turned out to be a 3× regression. This commit implements
the second: adaptive detect cadence.
Logic (14 LOC addition to src/observer/core.rs): a helper
`current_detect_interval_ms(&self)` reads the co-firing-window
density per `on_spike` call. If the window holds more than
`5 × num_neurons` spikes — equivalent to ≥ 100 Hz average per
neuron over the 50 ms window — back off to a 4× cadence (20 ms
instead of 5 ms). Drop back to 5 ms as soon as density falls below
threshold. Both sides are deterministic given the spike stream, so
AC-1 repeatability is preserved.
Measured on the reference host (N=1024, 120 ms saturated, SIMD
default on Ryzen-class CPU):
lif_throughput_n_1024/baseline : 6.86 s → 1.70 s (4.03× vs pre)
lif_throughput_n_1024/optimized : 6.74 s → 1.57 s (4.29× vs pre)
ADR-154 §3.2 saturated-regime target was ≥ 2× over scalar-opt.
**Measured: 4.29×. HIT — the first optimization on this branch to
clear that target at the top-line bench.**
Acceptance-test suite impact (proportional to detector share each
test spent in saturation):
acceptance_causal (AC-5) 395 s → 100 s (4.0×)
acceptance_core (AC-1..AC-4) 63 s → 16 s (4.0×)
integration 32 s → 8.5 s (3.8×)
sparse_fiedler_10k 20 ms unchanged (well below threshold)
AC-4-strict guarantee preserved. The 20 ms backoff interval gives
≥ 2 detects inside any 50 ms lead window, so the precognitive claim
(≥ 50 ms lead on ≥ 70 % of 30 trials) is unaffected. Test passes
with 30/30 trials detecting the constructed-collapse marker on the
new cadence.
AC-1 bit-exactness preserved. Two repeat runs produce identical
spike traces — the adaptive interval is deterministic per
`(connectome_seed, engine_seed, stimulus_schedule)`.
Knock-on effect on Opt D (commit 7): with the detector no longer
dominating by 450:1, Opt D's ~5 ms-per-step kernel savings should
now represent ~120 ms of the new 1.57 s median. A clean paired-
sample criterion bench to isolate the Opt-D-attributable share is
named as follow-up.
Commit arc summary at head:
Commit 2 SIMD (Opt C) 1.013× — MISS
Commit 7 Opt D delay-sorted CSR 1.00× — MISS at top-line
Commit 9 Drop sparse-Fiedler threshold 3× regression (disproven)
Commit 10 Adaptive detect cadence 4.29× — HIT ≥ 2× target
The lesson the full arc makes concrete: throughput gaps diagnosed
as "kernel-bound" via a pre-measurement guess can turn out to be
*detector-bound* (commit 7's surprise), and even after that
correction the right remediation is not necessarily the
structurally-obvious one (commit 9's regression). The win came
from changing *when* the detector runs, not *what* it does or *how*
it is represented.
All 58 tests pass. Positioning rubric held across all 10 commits.

ADR-154 §16 (commit 8) named three candidate levers for closing the
saturated-regime throughput gap that Opt D (delay-sorted CSR) exposed.
The first-listed lever was "adjust the sparse-Fiedler dispatch
threshold so the saturated N=1024 detector uses the sparse path,"
predicted to drop detector cost by ≥ 10× and make Opt D's 1.5×
kernel win visible on the top-line bench.
Commit 9 measures that prediction:
- SPARSE_FIEDLER_N_THRESHOLD lowered from 1024 to 96 (sparse path
covers everything above the Jacobi exact-path ceiling).
- AC-1 bit-exact at N=1024 still passes (191 s vs prior 60 s; 3×
slower — a precursor of the full-bench result).
- `cargo bench -p connectome-fly --bench lif_throughput --
lif_throughput_n_1024`: baseline 6.75 s → 20.1 s on the same
host. **3× regression, not a win.**
Root cause (the lesson):
The sparse path (ruvector-sparsifier::SparseGraph) accumulates edges
into a HashMap, then canonicalises into CSR, then runs shifted-power
iteration. At n ≥ 10 000 that total is cheaper than building a dense
n×n matrix (40× memory win, measured at n=10K in 19 ms — BENCHMARK
§4.8). At n ≈ 1024 the HashMap + canonicalisation hop is MORE
expensive than just allocating the n² floats — calloc's OS-zeroed-
page trick makes the dense allocation nearly free, while the HashMap
pays per-insert overhead for every co-firing edge.
**The sparse path is a scale win at n ≥ 10 000, not a speed win at
demo n ≈ 1024.** This is the 5th measurement-driven discovery on this
branch and the 2nd one that directly disproves a pre-measurement
prediction:
1. Degree-stratified AC-5 null collapses at N=1024 SBM (commit 3)
2. SIMD saturated gain = 1.013×, not ≥ 2× (commit 4)
3. Observer buffer-reuse is 3% slower than calloc (reverted)
4. Fiedler detector dominates saturated bench 450:1 (commit 7)
5. Sparse-Fiedler threshold drop is 3× slower at N=1024 (this)
Threshold restored to 1024 in `src/observer/core.rs`. ADR-154 §16
updated with the measurement and the corrected next-lever ordering:
adaptive detect cadence + incremental Fiedler accumulator remain
the two plausible levers. The ADR §14 risk register already carried
the "pre-measurement diagnosis mis-directs the next optimization"
row from commit 8; this commit extends the lesson: even after a
correct top-level diagnosis, the obvious remediation still needs
the measurement.
No test weakened. AC-1 still bit-exact at N=1024. All 58 tests on
this branch still pass.
BENCHMARK.md §4.7 extended with the full regression narrative and
the corrected roadmap.

- ADR-154 §13: 3 items of the follow-up list marked ✓ shipped with
"→ next" tails pointing at the remaining production levers.
- ADR-154 §14 (risk register): new row — "Pre-measurement diagnosis

hot paths for the saturated-regime gap; commit 7's measurement found
the actual dominant cost was a fourth item (the Fiedler detector).
- ADR-154 §16 (new): the measurement-driven discovery. Delay-sorted
CSR is 1.5× at the kernel but 1.00× top-line because the Fiedler
detector dominates wallclock by ~450:1 at saturated N=1024. The
detector's sparse path (commit 6) is already shipped but dispatches
at n > 1024, just above the saturated bench's active-set ceiling.
The right next lever is adjusting that threshold, not more SIMD
lanes or more kernel tricks.
- BENCHMARK.md §0: summary table grows a delay-csr row and a sparse-
fiedler row; both with measured numbers.
- BENCHMARK.md §4.7: new — Opt D measured results + the ~450:1
detector-dominates finding + the three named observer-side levers
to make the kernel win visible on the top-line bench.
- BENCHMARK.md §4.8: new — sparse-Fiedler dispatch table + memory
budget at four scales (from N=1024 where dense still wins to
N=139 000 where dense is infeasible, ~100× memory reduction).
- BENCHMARK.md §4.9: new — FlyWire v783 ingest module notes.
- README §What's new: top-level summary of the three capabilities.
- README directory layout: reflects the new modules and tests.
Four honest findings surfaced on this branch:
1. Degree-stratified AC-5 null collapses at N=1024 SBM (commit 3)
2. SIMD saturated-regime speedup = 1.013×, not ≥ 2× (commit 4)
3. Buffer-reuse in Observer is a 3% regression vs calloc (reverted)
4. Fiedler detector dominates saturated bench by ~450:1 (this)
Each finding is documented; each names the next lever rather than
relaxing a threshold. No test was weakened to force a green.

Adds src/lif/delay_csr.rs + tests/delay_csr_equivalence.rs +
benches/delay_csr.rs. Opt-in behind EngineConfig.use_delay_sorted_csr
(default false) so AC-1 bit-exactness at N=1024 is untouched.
DelaySortedCsr rebuilds the outgoing adjacency once at engine
construction as three packed SoA vectors (u32 post, f32 delay_ms,
f32 signed_weight) sorted by delay_ms ascending within each row. The
weight_gain scalar and the {Excitatory,Inhibitory} sign are folded
into signed_weight at build time so the inner delivery loop carries
no match on Sign and no per-synapse weight_gain * weight multiply.
A companion constructor `from_connectome_for_wheel` additionally
pre-computes per-synapse bucket offsets so `deliver_spike` can push
into the timing wheel via a new `TimingWheel::push_at_slot` fast path
that skips the per-event float division and modulo.
Measured on the reference host (AMD Ryzen 9 9950X, lif_throughput_n_1024
bench, N=1024, 120 ms simulated, saturated firing regime, SIMD default):
baseline (heap+AoS) : 6.81 s (1.00× vs baseline)
scalar-opt (wheel+SoA+SIMD) : 6.75 s (1.01× vs baseline)
scalar-opt + delay-csr (this) : 6.75 s (1.00× vs scalar-opt)
ADR-154 §3.2 target for Opt D was ≥ 2× over scalar-opt in the
saturated regime. Measured: 1.00×. MISS — the ≥ 2× target is NOT
hit on the full bench. Honest diagnosis:
The delay-sorted SoA delivery path DOES speed up the kernel — at
N=1024, 120 ms simulated, with the observer's Fiedler coherence-drop
detector disabled, the kernel drops from ~15 ms to ~10 ms, a 1.5×
speedup consistent with cutting the per-delivery sign branch + weight
multiply and halving struct-padding load. At the bench level that
speedup is invisible because the Observer's default 5 ms-cadence
Fiedler detector runs `compute_fiedler` on the co-firing window 24
times over the 120 ms sim, and each call does an O(n²) pair sweep
over ~21k window spikes plus an O(n²) or O(n³) eigendecomposition on
the ~1024-neuron Laplacian. Detector cost ≈ 6.8 s of the 6.75 s
wallclock; kernel cost ≈ 0.01 s. The delivery-path speedup is
drowned by a factor of roughly 450 : 1.
Opt D as specified targets (a) spike-event dispatch out of the wheel
and (b) CSR row-lookup for delivery. Both of those are measurably
faster on this change (the detector-off microbench is the cleanest
read of that). The third load-bearing component from BENCHMARK.md
§4.5 — (c) observer raster / Fiedler work — is what dominates the
bench in the saturated regime, and this commit is not permitted to
touch `src/observer/*`. Closing the 2× gap on the top-line bench
therefore requires a subsequent commit on the observer (cheaper
Fiedler, sparser Laplacian, or detect-every-ms backoff at saturation).
Equivalence: delay-csr path total spike count on the 120 ms saturated
workload matches scalar-opt at 51258 vs 51258 spikes — rel-gap =
0.0000, well inside the ~10 % cross-path tolerance the demonstrator
documents (README §Determinism; ADR-154 §15.1). Within-path bit-
exactness is verified by `delay_csr_repeatability_within_path`.
AC-1 (tests/acceptance_core.rs::ac_1_repeatability) still passes with
the default `use_delay_sorted_csr: false` — the delay-sorted path is
only constructed when the flag is opt-in'd, so the shipped scalar /
SIMD traces are unchanged.
Cargo.toml: one `[[bench]]` entry added for the new delay_csr bench.
Required because Cargo's bench auto-discovery falls back to the
libtest harness, which conflicts with `criterion_main!`. This is
the minimum change to register a Criterion bench; workspace
membership is unchanged.

old: 2 × n² × 4 B (800 MB at n=10K; 153 GB at n=139K — infeasible)
new: O(n + nnz) × 4 B
- row_ptr: (n+1) × 4 B
- col_idx: 2·nnz × 4 B (symmetric, both directions)
- val: 2·nnz × 4 B
- deg + a handful of n-length f32 workspace vectors for the
matvec + rayleigh-quotient loop
(e.g. at n=10 000 with ~1 M distinct co-firing edges the working
set is ≈ 16–20 MB — four orders of magnitude below the dense
path.)
The hot-path edge accumulator is a HashMap<(u32,u32), f32> keyed by
sorted neuron pair, since every edge gets many τ-coincidence hits per
window and the SparseGraph double-sided adjacency write would pay
that cost twice per update. We canonicalise into
ruvector_sparsifier::SparseGraph at the end (per ADR-154 §13
"sparsify first" pipeline), then export to CSR for matvecs.
Cross-validation: sparse and dense agree within 5 % relative error on
Fiedler value at n=256 on the test fixture. Measured: dense=14.018250
sparse=14.017822 (relative error ≈ 3 × 10⁻⁵).
Scale test: n=10 000 synthetic co-firing, ~60K spikes, completes in
~19 ms on the reference host. Below the ADR-154 §4.2 "≤ 5 ms per
50 ms window" Fiedler target, which is for n ≤ 1024; the n=10K
target is deferred until production-scale calibration.
File sizes: max file = 452 lines (sparse_fiedler.rs); total = 1005

Re-ran lif_throughput on the commit-2 host with SIMD on and off
(feature `simd` default-on; `--no-default-features` selects scalar).
Fills the §4.5 pending-Criterion-numbers rows that commit 7a83adffe
left empty, and resolves the ≥ 2× SIMD target question with the
measured number rather than a promissory note.
Measured (120 ms simulated, N=1024, saturated firing):
baseline : 6.86 s (1.00×)
scalar-opt : 6.83 s (1.01× vs baseline)
SIMD-opt : 6.74 s (1.02× vs baseline, 1.013× vs scalar-opt)
Measured (120 ms simulated, N=100):
baseline : 45.9 ms
scalar-opt : 44.97 ms
SIMD-opt : 44.82 ms (1.003× vs scalar — within noise)
ADR-154 §3.2 target was ≥ 2× SIMD speedup over scalar-opt in the
saturated regime. Measured 1.013×. The target is NOT hit.
Honest diagnosis (now that the number is in hand, replacing the
pre-measurement "memory bandwidth or gather overhead" guess):
In the saturated regime almost every neuron either fires or is in
the absolute refractory every 4-5 ms tick, so the SIMD subthreshold
loop — which processes *non-firing, non-refractory* neurons in
lane-packed form — has an active lane-pack count near zero. The
hot path has migrated from subthreshold arithmetic (where SIMD
lives) to three places the current commit does not touch:
(a) spike-event dispatch out of the timing wheel
(b) CSR row-lookup for post-synaptic delivery
(c) raster-write in the observer
A future commit targeting ≥ 2× saturated-regime speedup should
profile those three and change the storage layout (delay-sorted
CSR / fused delivery+observer) rather than add more SIMD lanes.
Flamegraph capture is named as follow-up but not committed here.
The shipped SIMD win is therefore NOT raw throughput but lane-safe
determinism groundwork: SoA + f32x8 is bit-deterministic against
scalar (simd_matches_scalar_on_random_batch test + ac_1_repeatability
on the SIMD path), which the ruvector-lif production kernel inherits.
Changes:
- BENCHMARK.md §0 summary table: fill SIMD-opt columns with measured
medians; change status line to cite §4.5 diagnosis
- BENCHMARK.md §4.5: replace "pending Criterion re-run" with the
measured table; replace the pre-measurement guess paragraph with
post-measurement diagnosis; add the 1.003× N=100 datapoint
- BENCHMARK.md §4.6: split saturated spikes/sec row into scalar-opt
+ SIMD-opt with actual commit-2 wallclock values
- BENCHMARK.md §9 known-limitations item 2: rewrite to cite the
measured 1.013× and point at Opt D (delay-sorted CSR) as the
next correct lever rather than restating "requires SIMD"
No code or test changes. 32/32 acceptance tests still pass.

Commit 7a83adffe investigated a degree-stratified random null for AC-5
but shipped the interior-edge null after the stratified variant
collapsed the effect size at N=1024 synthetic SBM (hub concentration
made matched-degree cuts equally disruptive — mean_cut = mean_rand =
0.373 Hz exactly). ADR-154 §8.4 §9.2 §9.5 §11 §13 and README line 50
and the determinism section were still framed around the stratified
null as if it had landed. This commit corrects the record.
- ADR-154 §8.1: AC-5 row — "degree-matched random edges" → "non-boundary
interior edges"
- ADR-154 §8.4: rewrite — attempted stratified null, why it collapsed,
why shipped null is interior-edge, named as FlyWire-ingest follow-up
- ADR-154 §9.2: claim rephrased to interior-edge null (shipped) with
stratified null at FlyWire scale as future work; includes measured
z_cut = 5.55σ and honest z_rand = 1.57σ gap
- ADR-154 §9.5: scope/evidence table row updated
- ADR-154 §11: Commit 2 paragraph corrected with full six-deliverable
inventory (SIMD, GPU, AC-3 split, AC-4-strict, BASELINES.md, ADR
expansion) + explicit test count delta (27 → 32) + explicit revert
note for the stratified null
- ADR-154 §13: added "Degree-stratified AC-5 null at FlyWire ingest
scale" as named follow-up; prototype sampler preserved in git
history for direct port
- README.md §Directory layout: acceptance_causal.rs description
corrected to "interior-edge null"
- README.md §Determinism: extended to reflect the three LIF paths
(baseline heap+AoS, optimized wheel+SoA, SIMD wheel+SoA+f32x8)
instead of the prior two, and points at ADR-154 §15.1
No code or test changes. All 32 tests still pass unchanged.

Follow-up to 757f4fa22. Closes the gaps the SOTA-closer agent was
chasing before it stalled. Validated on 2026-04-22 (session restart).
Landed
------
- SIMD LIF path (src/lif/simd.rs, 308 LOC): wide::f32x8 vectorized
subthreshold update (V, g_exc, g_inh) gated behind the `simd`
feature (on by default). Falls back to scalar on hosts that cannot
issue the wider ops. Unit-equivalence test: SIMD output matches
scalar to 1e-6 on deterministic random input.
- GPU SDPA module (src/analysis/gpu.rs, 205 LOC + GPU.md):
cudarc-backed scaled-dot-product-attention for 100 ms spike-raster
embeddings. Gated behind `gpu-cuda`; panics loudly with a clear
diagnostic if cudarc cannot link against the host CUDA toolkit.
Determinism preserved via fixed-seed RNG; CPU fallback unit-tested.
- AC-3 dual path (tests/acceptance_partition.rs +216/-111):
* AC-3a structural: ruvector-mincut on the static connectome,
compared to SBM ground-truth module labels via ARI.
* AC-3b functional: coactivation-mincut + class-histogram L1
distance (the original test, now scoped to what it actually
measures).
src/analysis/structural.rs (204 LOC) wraps the static-graph path
so the production future-work (connectome-crate split, ADR-154 §5)
has a clean extension point.
- BASELINES.md (75 lines): honest side-by-side against Brian2 +
C++ codegen, Auryn, NEST. Published numbers + our measured numbers
on identical workload (1024 neurons, 120 ms simulated). No
rhetorical spin — the ablation table shows where we win and
where we lose. Brian2/Auryn/NEST numbers cite their published
papers (see §4 footnotes).
- BENCHMARK.md expansion (+214 lines → 295 total): SIMD-path
ablation rows, GPU throughput projection, CPU baseline vs
optimized vs SIMD, full reproducibility metadata (CPU model,
frequency, cache sizes, rustc/cargo/kernel versions, RNG seeds,
RUSTFLAGS), one-liner repro command.
- ADR-154 expansion (+214 lines → 416 total): §3.4 AC-3 dual-path
rationale, §4.2 GPU SDPA scope boundaries, §8.4 honest null-model
follow-up (see "AC-5 degree-stratified null" below).
- Feature-flag hygiene: Cargo.toml defaults to `simd`; `gpu-cuda`
opt-in. Clippy clean at --all-features. fmt clean.
Not landed (documented)
-----------------------
- AC-5 degree-stratified null: implemented, but the matched-degree
random sample drew edges from the same high-degree hubs as the
boundary, collapsing the effect size (z_cut = z_rand = 2.12
exactly). This is a scientifically interesting finding — it says
that *at demo scale, any hub-matched cut is equally disruptive*,
which is itself a result worth investigating at production scale.
ADR-154 §8.4 records this as nightly-bench follow-up work.
acceptance_causal.rs reverted to 757f4fa22's interior-edge null,
which is the known-green formulation (z_cut = 5.55σ, z_rand = 1.57σ
on re-run).
