+Mathematical Foundation & Conceptual Documentation
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+CORE PRINCIPLE:
+Combines decision tree routing with associative hash buckets to create scalable
+memory systems that learn optimal organization patterns. Instead of searching
+all memory linearly, learned decision trees route queries to relevant memory
+buckets, creating hierarchical, adaptive memory organization.
+
+MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION:
+=======================
+
+1. DECISION TREE ROUTING:
+   Split Function: s(x, θ) = σ((w·x + b)/τ)
+   
+   Where:
+   - x: input feature vector
+   - w, b: learnable split parameters  
+   - τ: temperature parameter (controls split sharpness)
+   - σ: sigmoid function
+   - s(x,θ) ∈ [0,1]: routing probability (left vs right)
+
+2. HIERARCHICAL ROUTING:
+   Path to leaf: p = [s₁, s₂, ..., s_{d-1}] for depth d
+   Leaf index: L(x) = Σᵢ sᵢ × 2^i (binary path encoding)
+   Bucket assignment: B(x) = TreeToBucket[L(x)]
+
+3. ASSOCIATIVE MEMORY OPERATIONS:
+   Hash Functions: h_k(x) = tanh(W_k·x + b_k) for k = 1..K
+   Hash Signature: H(x) = [h₁(x), h₂(x), ..., h_K(x)]
+   Similarity: sim(x,y) = cosine(H(x), H(y))
+
+4. MEMORY STORAGE:
+   Storage Condition: sim(x, stored) < θ_similarity
+   Eviction Policy: LRU based on access_count[i]
+   Update Rule: x_stored ← α·x_stored + (1-α)·x_new for similar items
+
+5. ENSEMBLE RETRIEVAL:
+   Tree Votes: V_t(x) = {items from bucket B_t(x)}
+   Similarity Scores: S(q,i) = cosine_similarity(q, i)
+   Final Ranking: rank = argmax_i Σ_t w_t × S(q,i) × I(i ∈ V_t)
+   
+   Where w_t are tree importance weights.
+
+6. ADAPTIVE LEARNING:
+   Success Feedback: R(query, retrieval) ∈ [0,1]
+   Tree Update: θ_t ← θ_t + η·∇θ log P(correct_path|R)
+   Split Reinforcement: bias_node ← bias_node + α·sign(R - 0.5)
+
+CONCEPTUAL REASONING:
+====================
+
+WHY DECISION TREES + HASH BUCKETS?
+- Linear search over large memories is O(n) - doesn't scale
+- Fixed hash functions don't adapt to data distribution  
+- Decision trees provide hierarchical, learned routing (O(log n))
+- Hash buckets enable efficient similarity-based storage/retrieval
+- Combination creates adaptive, scalable associative memory
+
+KEY INNOVATIONS:
+1. **Learned Routing**: Decision trees adapt splits based on retrieval success
+2. **Hierarchical Organization**: Multi-level memory structure (trees → buckets → items)
+3. **Ensemble Retrieval**: Multiple trees vote on best memories
+4. **Adaptive Hash Functions**: Learnable hash functions with Hebbian updates
+5. **Success-Based Learning**: Trees optimize for retrieval performance
+
+APPLICATIONS:
+- Large-scale information retrieval systems
+- Adaptive caching and content distribution
+- Knowledge base organization and query
+- Recommender systems with hierarchical user models
+- Scientific literature search and organization
+
+COMPLEXITY ANALYSIS:
+- Storage: O(log T + B) where T=trees, B=bucket_size
+- Retrieval: O(T × log T + k × B) where k=top_k results
+- Tree Update: O(log T) per feedback sample
+- Memory: O(T × 2^D + N × E) where D=depth, N=items, E=embedding_dim
+- Scalability: Sub-linear in number of stored items
+
+BIOLOGICAL INSPIRATION:
+- Hippocampal place cell organization for spatial memory
+- Cortical hierarchical feature extraction and routing
+- Cerebellar learned motor program selection
+- Associative memory formation in neural circuits
+- Synaptic plasticity for adaptive connection strengths
