"""How many things can the shared space tell apart, and does that ceiling bind? A reader asked whether meaning here is built from a bounded set of units. Variance rank answers a different question: it measures where the spread sits, not how many items the space separates. A space can carry most of its variance in a few dozen directions and still discriminate hundreds of thousands of points. So this measures capacity directly. Fixed text queries, retrieval against pools that grow from 1,000 to 123,287 real images, all through the shipped head. If the alphabet were exhausted, rank would grow in proportion to the pool and the fraction would stay flat. If discrimination has headroom, the fraction falls. .venv/bin/python scripts/space_capacity.py """ from __future__ import annotations import json from pathlib import Path import numpy as np import torch from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download ROOT = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent HEAD = ROOT / "release/srt-sunstone-linear-head/sunstone_linear_head_v3_drift.pt" GALLERY = ROOT / "artifacts/local/gallery_full.npz" OUT = ROOT / "artifacts/nla/q4/space_capacity.json" POOLS = [1_000, 4_000, 16_000, 64_000, 123_287] SEED = 0 def project(v: np.ndarray, W: np.ndarray, b: np.ndarray, mu: np.ndarray) -> np.ndarray: z = (v - mu) @ W.T + b return z / (np.linalg.norm(z, axis=-1, keepdims=True) + 1e-8) def main() -> None: head = torch.load(HEAD, map_location="cpu", weights_only=True) calib = torch.load( hf_hub_download("RiverRider/srt-nla-gemma4-artifacts", "procrustes/encoded_L47_n5000.pt"), map_location="cpu", weights_only=True) z = np.load(GALLERY, allow_pickle=False) Z_img = z["Z_img"].astype(np.float32) pos = {f: i for i, f in enumerate(z["files"])} gold = np.array([pos[Path(f).name] for f in calib["files"]]) W_i = head["img"]["weight"].float().numpy() b_i = head["img"]["bias"].float().numpy() mu_i = head["mu_img"].float().numpy() # Control first: re-projecting the calibration images must land exactly on the # shipped gallery rows.
