""" Identity Reconstruction Experiment V2: Fixed Evaluation Logic CRITICAL FIXES from review: 1. PASS is now based on "preserved_rate stays high out to large K", not "curve is steep" 2. Uses exact same parameter snapshot for collapse recovery and identity reconstruction 3. Logs per-oscillator taus, not just moments 4. Checkpoint hash logged in both outputs for traceability 5. K sweep extended beyond sequence length The previous version had inverted logic: it called "PASS" when the curve was steep (phase transition shape) even though preservation collapsed at smaller K. Correct criterion: - PASS: preserved_rate >= 50% at K >= sequence_length / 2 - PARTIAL: preserved_rate >= 50% at K >= sequence_length / 4 - FAIL: preserved_rate < 50% at K < sequence_length / 4 Authors: Identity Reconstruction V2 (Fixed) Date: 2026-01-22 """ import numpy as np from typing import Dict, List, Tuple, Optional, Any from dataclasses import dataclass from pathlib import Path from datetime import datetime import json import hashlib import sys sys.path.insert(0, str(Path(__file__).parent.parent)) from training.fdra_oscillators import FDRAOscillatorBank, OscillatorConfig from training.half_life_regularizer import HalfLifeRegularizer, HalfLifeRegularizerConfig def compute_checkpoint_hash(lambdas: np.ndarray) -> str: """Compute deterministic hash of parameter snapshot.""" return hashlib.sha256(lambdas.tobytes()).hexdigest()[:16] @dataclass class ParameterSnapshot: """ Frozen parameter snapshot for traceability.
