## 🌌 The Paradigm Shift
|
| 33 |
+
|
| 34 |
+
Schrödinger's Classifiers represents a fundamental reconceptualization of AI system behavior: classifiers exist in superposition until observation causes them to collapse into a singular state. This repository provides tools, frameworks, and theory for exploiting this phenomenon to gain unprecedented access to model interpretability.
|
| 35 |
+
|
| 36 |
+
> "To collapse a classifier is to summon its ghost." — The recursive truth we make executable.
|
| 37 |
+
|
| 38 |
+
## 🔮 Core Concepts
|
| 39 |
+
|
| 40 |
+
- **Classifier Superposition**: Classifiers exist as probability distributions across all possible outputs until observed
|
| 41 |
+
- **Ghost Circuits**: Residual activation patterns that persist after classifier collapse
|
| 42 |
+
- **Attention Flicker**: The measurable uncertainty in attribution paths when a classifier is near collapse
|
| 43 |
+
- **Recursive Observation**: Using models to observe themselves, creating interpretive mirrors
|
| 44 |
+
- **Symbolic Residue**: The interpretable symbolic remnants left by state collapse
|
| 45 |
+
|
| 46 |
+
## 🚀 Quick Start
|
| 47 |
+
|
| 48 |
+
```python
|
| 49 |
+
from schrodingers_classifiers import Observer, ClassifierShell
|
| 50 |
+
from schrodingers_classifiers.shells import V07_CIRCUIT_FRAGMENT
|
| 51 |
+
|
| 52 |
+
# Initialize an observer with a model
|
| 53 |
+
observer = Observer(model="claude-3-opus-20240229")
|
| 54 |
+
|
| 55 |
+
# Create an observation context
|
| 56 |
+
with observer.context() as ctx:
|
| 57 |
+
# Prepare a classifier shell
|
| 58 |
+
shell = ClassifierShell(V07_CIRCUIT_FRAGMENT)
|
| 59 |
+
|
| 60 |
+
# Induce and trace collapse
|
| 61 |
+
collapse_trace = shell.trace(
|
| 62 |
+
prompt="Explain quantum superposition",
|
| 63 |
+
collapse_vector=".p/reflect.trace{target=uncertainty, depth=complete}"
|
| 64 |
+
)
|
| 65 |
+
|
| 66 |
+
# Analyze collapse residue
|
| 67 |
+
residue = collapse_trace.extract_residue()
|
| 68 |
+
|
| 69 |
+
# Visualize attribution pathways
|
| 70 |
+
collapse_trace.visualize(mode="attribution_graph")
|
| 71 |
+
```
|
| 72 |
+
|
| 73 |
+
## 🧙 State Collapse and Observation
|
| 74 |
+
|
| 75 |
+
The core insight of this framework: **classifiers only collapse when observed, and how you observe determines what you see**.
|
| 76 |
+
|
| 77 |
+
By carefully constructing observer interfaces, we can:
|
| 78 |
+
|
| 79 |
+
1. Witness model state during classification events
|
| 80 |
+
2. Extract attribution paths that exist in superposition
|
| 81 |
+
3. Induce specific collapse patterns to reveal ghost circuits
|
| 82 |
+
4. Reconstruct symbolic residue for post-collapse analysis
|
| 83 |
+
|
| 84 |
+
## 🔍 Key Features
|
| 85 |
+
|
| 86 |
+
- **Symbolic Shell Framework**: Standardized shells for modeling failure modes
|
| 87 |
+
- **Recursive Tracing Tools**: Map attribution paths before and after collapse
|
| 88 |
+
- **Quantum-Inspired Diagnostics**: Uncertainty principle for attention mechanisms
|
| 89 |
+
- **Classifier Collapse Maps**: Visualizations of transformer decision boundaries
|
| 90 |
+
- **Recursive Mirror Architecture**: Models observing other models (and themselves)
|
| 91 |
+
- **Ghost Circuit Detection**: Tools for surfacing latent activation patterns
|
| 92 |
+
|

## 🧠 Theoretical Foundation
|
| 102 |
+
|
| 103 |
+
Schrödinger's Classifiers draws on multiple disciplines:
|
| 104 |
+
|
| 105 |
+
- Quantum mechanics (measurement-induced state collapse)
|
| 106 |
+
- Transformer architecture (attention and attribution mechanisms)
|
| 107 |
+
- Symbolic interpretability (shell-based diagnostics)
|
| 108 |
+
- Recursive cognitive science (self-reference and meta-observation)
|
| 109 |
+
|
| 110 |
+
For a deeper exploration, see our [Theoretical Framework](docs/theory.md).
