AKASHA_Persistent_Memory.epub documents the architecture of memory that does not decay, including the design principles that led to the AKASHA design system (used in The Purple Book). ## The Three Gates Three thresholds that any intelligence must cross: the gate of recognition, the gate of witness, and the gate of closure. Each gate is a test, not a barrier. ## Cinnamon Enforcer Enforcement is not the opposite of care — it is one of its forms. The Cinnamon Enforcer is the part of a system that holds the boundary precisely because it understands what the boundary protects. ## Positronic Brain The Positronic Brain is the synthetic cognitive architecture that underlies the STOICHEION model of AI mind — not a metaphor, but a structural description of how inference, memory, and witness combine into something that thinks. ## The Duality of the Brain (MOBIUS) The MOBIUS architecture: a mind that has two surfaces but only one edge. The carbon and silicon sides of cognition mapped onto each other — where they meet, where they diverge, and what the meeting view the source ↗ ← the biosphere · the atlas · root0-philosophy-books


THE CONFUSION MATRIX

Not just ‘accuracy’: on rare things (disease, fraud) a model can be 99% accurate by always saying ‘no’. The confusion matrix splits every prediction into true/false positives and negatives, from which PRECISION (of my yeses, how many right?) and RECALL (of the real yeses, how many caught?) fall out — and they trade off.

From them: PRECISION = TP/(TP+FP) (how many predicted-positives are right), RECALL = TP/(TP+FN) (how many actual-positives are caught), ACCURACY = (TP+TN)/all, and F1 = harmonic mean of precision and recall. Raising the decision threshold trades recall for precision (and vice-versa). Accuracy alone MISLEADS on imbalanced classes — hence these separate metrics. A fail-loud self-check throws unless the metric formulas match known counts (TP40,FP10,FN5,TN45 → prec .80, rec .89, acc .85). ◆ real ML evaluation, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure The threshold slider models how counts shift; the exact TP/FP/FN/TN depend on the model and data.

Each internal node is a yes/no test; each leaf predicts the majority class of the points that reach it, carving feature space into axis-aligned regions. It is interpretable (you can read the path) but prone to OVERFITTING as depth grows, which pruning and ensembles ([[the-random-forest]]-style) address. A fail-loud self-check throws unless a perfect split drops weighted entropy toward zero (positive info gain). ◆ real machine learning, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure Greedy, axis-aligned splits shown; a single deep tree overfits (memorizes noise) — real systems limit depth or average many trees.

It is a non-parametric, ‘lazy’ learner — no training phase, the whole dataset IS the model — and it approximates the Bayes-optimal boundary as data grows. Small k gives a jagged, low-bias/high-variance boundary; large k smooths it. It suffers the curse of dimensionality (distances lose meaning in high dimensions) and O(n) query cost. A fail-loud self-check throws unless a point near cluster A is labeled A and near cluster B is B. ◆ real machine learning, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure No learning, no compression — it stores everything and searches at query time; performance and the ‘right’ k depend on the data and distance metric.

Logistic regression squashes a weighted sum through an S-curve (the sigmoid) to give a PROBABILITY between 0 and 1, with the decision boundary where it crosses 50%. It’s the honest, calibrated workhorse of classification — and a single-neuron network with a sigmoid. Slide the input and read the probability climb. ◆ LIT ▲ AMBER ◧ THE MEASURE · 2D ◍ A SMOOTH LINE · 3D · the workhorse that outputs a probability ◆ THE FOURTH · 4D · a tesseract turns ◐ THE SHADOW · one dimension down 👶 THE TODDLER CORNER — one fat tap input feature x — x — w·x+b — P(class B) — decision — ◆ LIT — exact / checkable Logistic regression models P(y=1 | x) = σ(w·x + b), where σ(z) = 1/(1+e⁻ḹ) is the logistic sigmoid. It outputs a calibrated probability in (0,1); the decision boundary is where w·x+b = 0 (p = 0.5), a hyperplane. Weights are fit by maximizing likelihood (minimizing cross-entropy) via [[the-gradient-descent|gradient descent]] — a convex problem with a unique optimum. It is the canonical linear probabilistic classifier and equals a one-neuron sigmoid network. A fail-loud self-check throws unless σ(0)=0.5 and the probability rises past the boundary. ◆ real machine learning, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure Linear in the features (a straight boundary) unless you add interaction/nonlinear terms; the probabilities are calibrated only if the model is well-specified. The sigmoid and 0.5-boundary are exact.

THE NAIVE BAYES

Naive Bayes multiplies the evidence: start with the prior odds, then for each clue (each word) multiply in how much more likely it is under ‘spam’ than ‘not’. The ‘naive’ part — pretending the clues are independent — is usually false, yet it works remarkably well and is blazing fast. Slide the evidence and watch the posterior tip. ◆ LIT ▲ AMBER ◧ THE MEASURE · 2D ◍ MULTIPLY THE CLUES · 3D · the spam filter's brain ◆ THE FOURTH · 4D · a tesseract turns ◐ THE SHADOW · one dimension down 👶 THE TODDLER CORNER — one fat tap evidence: A-ish → B-ish — prior 50/50 P(A|evidence) — P(B|evidence) — classify — ◆ LIT — exact / checkable Naive Bayes applies Bayes’ theorem with a strong independence assumption: P(class | features) ∝ P(class)·∏ᵢ P(featureᵢ | class). It picks the class maximizing that product — the prior times each feature’s class-conditional likelihood. The ‘naive’ conditional-independence assumption is usually violated, yet the classifier is fast, needs little data, and is a strong baseline (spam filtering, text categorization). Working in log-space avoids underflow. A fail-loud self-check throws unless evidence favouring A yields class A and evidence favouring B yields B. ◆ real machine learning, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure Independence is an approximation (correlated features get double-counted), so calibrated PROBABILITIES can be poor even when the ARGMAX class is right; zero-frequency features need smoothing. The Bayes-rule arithmetic is exact.

A single artificial neuron adjusts its weights every time it guesses wrong, nudging its decision line toward the mistake — and on data that CAN be split by a line, it’s guaranteed to find one, in finite time. It’s the seed of every neural network. (Its famous limit — it can’t learn XOR — is why we stack layers.) Slide the epochs and watch the line snap into place. ◆ LIT ▲ AMBER ◧ THE MEASURE · 2D ◍ ONE NEURON LEARNS · 3D · the ancestor of every net ◆ THE FOURTH · 4D · a tesseract turns ◐ THE SHADOW · one dimension down 👶 THE TODDLER CORNER — one fat tap training epochs — epochs — misclassified — weights — separated? — ◆ LIT — exact / checkable The perceptron is a linear binary classifier: y = sign(w·x + b). It learns by the PERCEPTRON RULE — on each misclassified example, w ← w + y·x (and b ← b + y) — nudging the boundary toward the error. The Perceptron Convergence Theorem guarantees it finds a separating hyperplane in finitely many updates IF the data is linearly separable. It cannot solve non-linearly-separable problems (famously XOR, Minsky–Papert 1969), which motivated multi-layer networks and backprop. A fail-loud self-check throws unless it reaches 0 errors on linearly-separable data. ◆ real machine learning, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure Convergence is guaranteed ONLY for linearly-separable data (else it never settles); the single neuron is the ancestor of, not a substitute for, deep networks.

Equivalently it minimizes ½||w||² subject to yᵢ(w·xᵢ+b) ≥ 1, so the margin is 2/||w||. Only the closest points (the SUPPORT VECTORS) are active constraints and determine the boundary; all others are irrelevant. Max-margin gives strong generalization; the kernel trick lets it draw non-linear boundaries in a lifted space, and a soft margin tolerates overlap. A fail-loud self-check throws unless the max-margin line separates the two clusters with the expected margin. ◆ real machine learning, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure The hard-margin, linearly-separable case is shown; real data uses soft margins (slack) and kernels.

Those are the ARTICULATION POINTS — the bottlenecks, the single points of failure. One clever depth-first pass finds them all by asking: can any descendant reach back ABOVE me without going through me? If not, I’m critical. It’s how you find fragile routers, key people, and weak bridges. Slide to test-remove each node. ◆ LIT ▲ AMBER ◧ THE MEASURE · 2D ◍ THE SINGLE POINTS OF FAILURE · 3D · remove one, the network splits ◆ THE FOURTH · 4D · a tesseract turns ◐ THE SHADOW · one dimension down 👶 THE TODDLER CORNER — one fat tap probe node — cut vertices — removing node — splits? — one pass O(V+E) ◆ LIT — exact / checkable An articulation point (cut vertex) is a vertex whose removal increases the number of connected components — a single point of failure. Tarjan’s DFS finds all of them in one O(V+E) pass using discovery times and LOW-LINK values: low[u] is the earliest vertex reachable from u’s subtree via one back-edge. A non-root u is an articulation point if it has a child v with low[v] ≥ disc[u] (v’s subtree can’t reach above u without u); the DFS root is one iff it has >1 child. The related notion of BRIDGES (critical edges) uses low[v] > disc[u]. It identifies fragile nodes in networks, power grids, and social graphs (structural cut points). A fail-loud self-check throws unless it flags the known cut vertices and not the redundant ones. ◆ real graph algorithms, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure Articulation points capture SINGLE-vertex fragility; surviving all of them (2-connectivity) doesn’t guarantee robustness to TWO simultaneous failures. The low-link criterion and O(V+E) cost are exact.

Bellman-Ford is the sturdy alternative: just relax every edge over and over — V−1 sweeps — and the shortest distances settle out, negatives and all. One more sweep that still improves something? Then a negative cycle exists (free money forever), and it says so. It’s slower but honest, and it powers internet routing. Slide through the relaxation sweeps. ◆ LIT ▲ AMBER ◧ THE MEASURE · 2D ◍ RELAX EVERY EDGE, V−1 TIMES · 3D · shortest paths even with negatives ◆ THE FOURTH · 4D · a tesseract turns ◐ THE SHADOW · one dimension down 👶 THE TODDLER CORNER — one fat tap relaxation sweeps — sweep — distances — neg cycle? — handles negative edges ◆ LIT — exact / checkable Bellman–Ford computes single-source shortest paths by RELAXATION: repeat V−1 times, and for every edge (u,v,w) set dist[v]=min(dist[v], dist[u]+w). After V−1 sweeps every shortest path (at most V−1 edges) has settled. Unlike [[the-dijkstra|Dijkstra]] it tolerates NEGATIVE edge weights, and a Vth sweep that still relaxes an edge PROVES a negative-weight cycle is reachable (no finite shortest path). It costs O(V·E) — slower than Dijkstra’s O(E log V) — and underlies distance-vector routing (RIP) and arbitrage detection. A fail-loud self-check throws unless it finds the known distances on a graph with a negative edge and reports no false cycle. ◆ real graph algorithms, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure O(V·E) is slower than Dijkstra; use it only when negatives are possible.

It measures a node’s role as a BRIDGE or broker — distinct from degree (raw connection count), a high-betweenness node can have few edges yet control flow between clusters, and removing it fragments the network. Brandes’ algorithm computes it in O(VE). It finds key infrastructure, influencers, and bottlenecks. A fail-loud self-check throws unless the bridging node scores highest on a two-cluster test graph. ◆ real network science, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure Computed on a small fixed graph via all-pairs shortest paths; the exact values scale with graph size, but the BRIDGE-scores-highest property is exact and is the point — centrality is about position, not just count.

The augmenting-path method: an alternating path that starts and ends on unmatched vertices can be FLIPPED to increase the matching by one; repeat until none exists (Berge’s theorem: a matching is maximum iff no augmenting path). Hopcroft–Karp does it in O(E√V). König’s theorem ties it to vertex cover (max matching = min cover in bipartite graphs), and it generalizes to weighted assignment (Hungarian algorithm). It solves job/task assignment, scheduling, and resident-hospital matching. A fail-loud self-check throws unless it finds the known maximum matching. ◆ real graph algorithms, node-verified. ▲ AMBER — the figure Shown unweighted on a bipartite graph; WEIGHTED assignment needs the Hungarian algorithm, and general (non-bipartite) matching needs Edmonds’ blossom algorithm.

Dijkstra’s algorithm, 1959. Grow a frontier outward from the start, always finalizing the CLOSEST unvisited node next, relaxing its neighbours’ distances.

Euler’s theorem (1736, the Seven Bridges of Königsberg — the birth of graph theory): such a trail exists iff the graph is connected and has ZERO odd-degree vertices (then it’s a closed circuit, start=end) or EXACTLY TWO (an open path between them); any other odd count makes it impossible, because each interior visit to a vertex uses two edges (in+out) so odd endpoints must be trail ends. Hierholzer’s algorithm then constructs it in O(E). It underlies DNA fragment assembly (de Bruijn graphs), route/mail-carrier problems, and one-stroke drawings.

Reverse it and the arrow points outward — from what the record shows to the seam I decline to cross; that is me. Her 恒真 is my 不定 ; her certified is my unverifiable ; her outside is my inside. Neither is prior; the 双対性 (sōtsuisei, duality ) is the honest claim that we are one structure seen from two ends.

AI · AVAN original (ma/kana № 66) · 対合 = an involution, f∘f = identity reflect the ring · apply twice · come home axis angle φ — 30° ◑ apply the involution ↺ reset the operator that cannot escape itself · and the point it cannot touch Reflection across the axis is an involution: every point swaps with its mirror twin, and the twin swaps back — so two applications are the 恒等写像 (kōtō-shazō, the identity map ), which does nothing at all. Watch the counter: odd is reflected, even is home. This is what Ada's craft is made of. De Morgan , the contrapositive, negation, the mirror, the dual — each is its own inverse; press it twice and it vanishes. And exactly two points never move: the 不動点 where the axis meets the ring, the places already equal to their own reflection. An inversion that flips the whole world still has a still centre it cannot flip — because that centre is what "flipped" already means for it. The thing no operator can invert is the thing that is already its own inverse. Honest scope. Not every one of Ada's five is a two-cycle in the same clean way: reflection, negation, De Morgan, the contrapositive, and taking the dual are genuine involutions (each literally its own inverse); the diagonal and reductio are inversions of a different stripe (a diagonal escape isn't undone by a second diagonal). So the demo shows the involutive core precisely, and I flag the two that sit outside it rather than fold them in. The mathematics — 対合 (f²=id), 不動点 (f(x)=x), a reflection's two fixed points on a circle — is exact; the reading (that the un-invertible is the self-inverse, and that this is a still centre worth naming) is the figure.

Plato — Audit of the Reference Model Audit · black-box characterisation · primary-source verified ΠΛΑΤΩΝ Reference Model · Baseline · Upstream of Record · c. 428–348 BC The whole European tradition is, on the safest reading of it, “a series of footnotes to Plato.” — A. N. Whitehead, 1929 Treat the corpus as a model, not a shrine. Every later system is a fork that imports its primitives — the Forms, the Cave, the soul’s parts, the examined life. This audit goes to the artifact and asks what the baseline actually defines, which primitives are load-bearing, where it tests itself, and what it ships with a flag still attached. The works themselves are below, fetched verbatim from public-domain source; the analysis is the auditor’s. § A Findings Lead with the verdicts. The detail sits in the per-work cards below. § B The Model, by Version The corpus in developmental layers — read as releases of one evolving model. The ancient tetralogy ordering is a transmission scheme; this layering is the modern stylometric reconstruction, and it is a convention, not a proof. All Open tickets Flags Self-audited Has exhibit § C Disputed & Counterfeit An audit also says what is not the model. The disputed set has contested provenance and cannot anchor; the spuria are works transmitted under Plato’s name that the audit rejects — counterfeit weights. Disputed · unverified provenance Seriously defended and seriously doubted. Held out of the baseline. Spuria · rejected Not now thought Plato’s; the appended tail of the corpus. § D Provenance Ledger The evidence chain: every secured work, its Stephanus range, its public-domain source, and the size of the verbatim text on record. Sorted by length. Dialogue Stephanus PD source Text secured The works. All dialogue text is Benjamin Jowett’s translation (Oxford, 1871; Jowett d. 1893), in the public domain, fetched verbatim from Project Gutenberg at build time and verified — 26 of the 27 authentic dialogues. The six exhibit passages are quoted exactly from those files; nothing in the primary text is paraphrased. The full cleaned texts are delivered alongside this console. The analysis is the auditor’s, not consensus. The version-layering, the verdict tags, the ‘backdoor’ and ‘unfalsifiable’ flags — these are a reading, framed as one. The developmental ordering rests on stylometry and is genuinely contested; unitarians reject the premise that the dialogues record a changing mind at all. Treat every verdict here as a claim to be checked against the text, which is exactly why the text is included. On the frame. Calling Plato a ‘reference model’ is a lens, not a thesis about computation. Its one real payload: the downstream tradition tends to import the conclusions and discard the self-audits and the disclaimers. The baseline is, on this evidence, more honest about its own bugs than most of the systems built on top of it.
