IDEA-002 — independent assessment evidence review

Bounded static review of assessment claims, archived results and proposed evaluation; no experiment reproduction.

Findings and material-fix recheck

  1. Addressed; originally medium — metric interpretation, assessment “What is already valuable.” The 2.353→1.994 dB values are rmse_db_thr, floor-clipped all-pixel errors; raw errors are 10.087→9.999 dB and outdoor-clipped errors 2.413→1.924 dB. Calling these simply “DPM RMSE” can overstate weak-signal/general accuracy. Add the floor-clipped/all-pixel qualifier and disclose the raw contrast or link its explicit explanation.134
  2. Addressed; originally medium — coverage scoring ambiguity, experiment fixed design step 2. The −127.2 dB analytical threshold is below the exact loader floor −127.168 dB (−147 + 0.2 × 99.16). Thresholding floor-clipped arrays would count censored pixels as covered, even with strict >. Require raw decoded gains for coverage classification, explicit strict comparison, and separate censoring masks; retain exact constants for calculations. This is a proposal defect to resolve before execution, not an observed failed experiment.25

Targeted recheck confirms assessment now labels floor-clipped all-pixel RMSE and discloses raw values; experiment requires raw-array strict comparison, exact floor, separate censoring/no-ray flags and unknown/bounds with stop behavior for clipped-only inputs. The interface carries the same safeguard. Earlier “positive path gain” wording also corrected. These document fixes address both findings; no experiment execution is implied.

Checks and conclusion

Read assessment, completion/interface/experiment proposals, main/worktree findings, session inventory, manifest and integrity inventory. Representative checks against exact captures confirmed geometry/hybrid metrics; IRT4–IRT2 differences 17.1/18.8/16.4 pp; learned-ray 79.553%/63.360% exact matches and fixed raster/strip/exit constants; SpectrumNet seed RMSEs/ring errors, 38.4 pp transfer spread and rounded 99.8% all-dead agreement. Recomputed the latter from saved seed/mosaic JSON, not predictions.3467

Rehashed all 66 inventory entries: sizes and SHA-256 match. This establishes retained-byte integrity only.9 Selected session excerpts support proposal/execution distinctions; omitted messages/tools/images prevent a full authorization audit.8

The synthesis separates simulator propagation from detector performance, proposed milestones from decisions, and future execution from this assessment. No critical unsupported headline result identified in this bounded pass. Both identified findings are addressed; no residual acceptance-blocking defect identified within this review scope.

Limits and next action

No network, original checkout execution, training, inference, checkpoint/data-array audit, field validation or human verification. Did not reperform the study or independently verify dataset documentation/licensing. Privacy review covered selected excerpts and manifest exclusions, not omitted full conversations. Coordinator owns fixes, brief/status, indexes and final validation; this review writes only this file.

  1. Reviewed claim location named above. ↩

  2. Proposed design; execution remains separately authorized. ↩

  3. Exact archived JSON metric keys. ↩↩

  4. Exact archived JSON metric keys. ↩↩

  5. Exact loader arithmetic and official-split implementation. ↩

  6. Exact saved reference percentages, not independently measured propagation. ↩

  7. Findings link exact raynet code, saved rollout/seed/mosaic JSON; representative originals inspected directly. ↩

  8. Inventory and representative learned-ray/SpectrumNet decoded-message excerpts inspected. ↩

  9. All listed retained files checked with local SHA-256 and byte counts. ↩
