| ## Abstract |
|
|
| We present a method for extracting compact behavioral frequency signatures from large language models (LLMs) without accessing model weights. By treating a model's output distribution as a measurable signal, applying harmonic decomposition with phi-ratio decimation, and encoding the resulting spectral components, we produce sub-kilobyte identity signatures that uniquely characterize each model's behavioral profile. |
|
|
| Across ten models ranging from 3 GB to 66 GB in size, our extraction pipeline produced signatures between 268 and 479 bytes, yielding a signature-to-model size ratio exceeding **138,000,000:1**. |
|
|
| These signatures are **behavioral identity representations** — analogous to an acoustic fingerprint that identifies a piece of music without encoding the audio itself. Applications include model routing, distributed identity verification, edge consultation coordination, and decentralized AI infrastructure. |

|
| ## Method Overview |
|
|
| The pipeline consists of four stages: |
|
|
| 1. **Calibration Sampling** — Structured prompt set probes model across behavioral dimensions |
| 2. **Signal Construction** — Responses encoded as a multivariate behavioral signal |
| 3. **Spectral Decomposition + Phi-Ratio Decimation** — Harmonic components extracted using golden ratio (φ ≈ 1.618) decimation |
| 4. **Signature Encoding** — 3–7 dominant modes packed into compact binary format (frequency, phase, amplitude, harmonic key) |

|
| ## What This Is — and What It Is Not |
|
|
| **A Behavioral Frequency Signature IS:** |
| - A compact, unique identifier for a model's behavioral character |
| - Extractable without weight access in under two minutes |
| - Transmissible at near-zero cost across any network |
| - Useful as a routing key, identity token, and consultation reference |
|
|
| **IS NOT:** Reconstructive compression. You cannot run inference from 400 bytes. The signature identifies the model — it does not replace it. |
|

|
|
| ## Applications |
|
|
| - **Distributed Model Routing** — Sub-500-byte routing tables for entire fleets |
| - **Edge Consultation Coordination** — Full fleet identity registry fits in L3 cache |
| - **Model Identity Verification** — Behavioral ground truth independent of weight checksums |
| - **Decentralized AI Infrastructure** — Peer-to-peer AI discovery without central registry |
