Cliste experiment

Partial cue confidence in continuing VSA memory

Execution: completedScientific verdict: partial confidence not met

The question

Test whether a fixed support-dependent acceptance rule improves usable partial-cue recall without introducing wrong-source acceptance, preserving VSA content, rankings and the continuing life.

Why this experiment?

A partial cue can resemble the wrong memory. Recall needs to recover useful content while recognizing when the evidence is insufficient.

How it works

Compare partial-cue recall with familiar and unfamiliar inputs, retaining incorrect accepts and refusals. Cleanup and confidence rules are qualified before relying on them for a remembered continuation.

Follow this part of the investigation: More answers are useful only if the extra confidence is justified →
Implementation and comparison details

One shared native query per field; compare baseline, support-scaled thresholds and a fixed partial boost. Thirty-two new native images enter a 47-to-79 encounter fork; sixty-four independent sources never enter memory.

What happened

Completed valid negative qualification: support-scaled correct partial recall 111/192 versus baseline 66/192 (gain 23.44 percentage points; source-bootstrap 95% interval 17.71–29.17). No wrong present-source accepts. Never-admitted partial false accepts 7/384 versus 5/384; two sources gain an additional erroneous field, giving a 9.51% upper bound above the required 5%. Both sources already had baseline errors elsewhere. Fixed boost gives 121 correct and 18 novel wrong fields. All independent and continuity audits pass; full 1.3 stays open.

Results and visual artifacts

Open a figure for its input, comparison, and result. Click an image to enlarge it.

This experiment tests whether partial images should use a different recall threshold. Each 80 × 80 input region contributes up to 64 feature positions; support, or k, counts the visible positions. The support-scaled rule multiplies similarity and its lead over the runner-up by √(64/k). A fixed-boost control uses √(64/12) for every partial view. All three rules rank the same memories. Correct means recalling the photograph that supplied the cue; abstention means returning no image.

Recall improves, but the added-error target is not met
Recall improves, but the added-error target is not met
The support-scaled rule improved correct recall by 23.4 percentage points across partial views of 32 stored photographs; the 95% source-bootstrap interval is 17.7–29.2 points. It also introduced false recalls for cues from 2 of 64 never-stored photographs. The one-sided 95% upper bound on that source-level error rate is 9.5%, above the predefined 5% limit.

Recall decisions at four levels of visible detail
Recall decisions at four levels of visible detail
Support counts 12, 24, 40, or 64 usable feature positions in the input region. For each rule and support count, the table reports correct, wrong, and absent responses to 64 cues from stored photographs, plus false responses to 128 cues from never-stored photographs. Top is the best adjusted match score; gap is its lead over the runner-up. These values are decision scores, not probabilities. At 64 visible positions, all three rules are identical.

Which photographs benefited, and which introduced errors?
Which photographs benefited, and which introduced errors?
Each upper bar shows the change in correct recall for one stored photograph, averaged over six partial views. Values are percentage-point changes from the baseline. In the lower grid, red marks a never-stored photograph with at least one newly false-accepted cue. Green means no added error; it does not mean that both rules were always correct. Multiple views of one photograph are not independent samples.

Partial images that the adjusted rule successfully recalls
Partial images that the adjusted rule successfully recalls
Read each row left to right: partial input, visibility mask, baseline output, support-scaled output, and fixed-boost output. White in the mask means observed; gray input pixels are hidden. The baseline declines all four shown cues, while the adjusted rules recall the intended stored photographs. The last three columns show actual decoded working-memory outputs. The accompanying score pair gives the best match and its lead over the runner-up.

Relaxing acceptance also causes incorrect recalls
Relaxing acceptance also causes incorrect recalls
These four input photographs were absent from memory at the time of each query. The baseline returns no image; the adjusted rules accept unrelated stored images. The top two rows test never-stored photographs, while the lower two were queried before those photographs were added. Output images are actual decoded recalls. This is an acceptance error: a visually plausible stored image is still wrong when it did not supply the cue.

Some stored photographs remain unrecognized from these patches
Some stored photographs remain unrecognized from these patches
The cue photographs are stored, but every rule declines the shown partial views. Below threshold means the best match is too weak; ambiguous means its lead over another memory is too small. Blank output boxes represent no new recall, not a black reconstructed image. The visibility mask identifies the information actually available to the encoder; adding a score boost does not restore the missing visual evidence.

Limits and next question

A supplied visibility/count policy with one fixed codec and memory construction, not learned confidence or general novelty recognition. Source-owner tests use local fields. No policy is promoted; full milestone 1.3 remains open and the earlier final32 panel stays sealed.

Next question. Can corroborating independent perceptual evidence resolve a tentative recall while preserving the measured gain and reducing wrong acceptance? No follow-up is started or policy promoted.
