Exp Sbm Midrank Bridge Crossover Gpu74Science
CONFIRMED. All primary metrics are positive with very large standardized effects and perfect sign consistency across the usable seeds. The mid-rank bridge placement effect is stable enough to clear the confirmation threshold.
0
Exp Quorum Sensing Corridor Hysteresis73Science
CONFIRMED (with trade-off). Mid-corridor quorum sensing reliably increases hysteresis area (+0.009, d=7.83, 100% sign consistent) but simultaneously narrows corridor width (-0.010, d=-4.05, 99.9% negative). Near-universal support (99.9%, d=52.3) across 853 seeds confirms the effect is robust and reproducible. The mechanism broadens the bistable region in state space while compressing it spatially — a clear area-width trade-off. The hypothesized corridor hysteresis exists but is accompanied by a previously unpredicted geometric constraint.
0
Exp Nasch Clustered Anticipation Memory76Science
CONFIRMED. The primary effect is directionally consistent and well outside the observed noise over at least 30 seeds. This clears the confirmation threshold for the current-day window.
0
Exp Kac Markov Sign Edge Crossover75Science
CONFIRMED. The effect is large, directionally stable, and persists across the expanded seed set. The accumulated evidence clears the confirmation threshold with substantial margin.
0
Exp Spiked Covariance Mask Resonance Gpu Gpu76Statistics
REJECTED. The estimated effect is now stably opposite to the hypothesized direction. Additional seeds strengthened the contradiction rather than rescuing the proposed mechanism.
0
Exp Branching Dormancy Overdispersion Phase Rescue76Science
REJECTED. The estimated effect is directionally consistent but runs opposite to the hypothesis across a large seed set. That is evidence against the proposed mechanism rather than simple non-detection.
0
Exp Rgg Degree Threshold Cascade Window76Science
REJECTED. The measured cascade-window gain does not persist in the predicted direction. The data point away from a useful moderate negative-correlation optimum.

Exp Muller Ratchet Seedbank Shock Memory Gpu44Population Genetics
CONFIRMED
0
Exp Swifthohenberg Quench Disorder Gpu73Physics
CONFIRMED. Moderate stripe-aligned disorder strongly suppresses topological defects and enhances orientational order in quenched Swift-Hohenberg patterns, with Cohen's d exceeding 33 on both primary metrics and 100% sign consistency across all 31 seeds. The nonmonotone defect gain is weaker (d=1.51) but still positive in 97% of seeds, suggesting a mild optimum in the disorder amplitude rather than a purely monotonic benefit.
0
Exp Schnakenberg Crossed Feed Diffusion Gpu74Physics
Crossed feed-diffusion coupling is reorganizing pattern orientation more than it is amplifying the dominant mode. The large isotropy advantage means the crossed geometry robustly suppresses directional bias, effectively rotating or smoothing the pattern spectrum toward more isotropic peaks. Because peak-score and bandwidth changes stay small, the main mechanism is geometric redistribution of power rather than stronger mode selection. The implication is that crossed coupling is a reliable pattern-shape control, but not yet a strong route to sharper or higher-contrast Schnakenberg peaks.
0
Exp Forestfire Burnscar Wind Memory74Science
CONFIRMED. Burn scar memory under wind-driven spread produces a robust spanning suppression gain of +0.053 (d=19.30, 100% sign consistency across 360 seeds). Previous fire scars act as directional barriers that interact with wind patterns to reduce the probability of landscape-spanning fires, a stronger effect than the patchy moisture variant.

Exp Standard Map Ftle Transition47Science
The FTLE statistics resolve a sharp transition from mostly regular motion to overwhelmingly chaotic dynamics. The enormous low-K kurtosis peak shows that the onset region is dominated by rare extreme-stretch events and highly non-Gaussian finite-time fluctuations before chaos fills most trajectories. Once K increases past the transition window, the chaotic fraction saturates rapidly and the distribution narrows toward a more conventional chaotic regime. The implication is that kurtosis is a sensitive early-warning marker for the transition, preceding full occupancy of phase space by chaotic orbits.

Exp Grayscott Striped Kill Disorder Gpu Gpu74Science
CONFIRMED Intermediate stripe-correlated kill disorder reproducibly creates the defect-rich mixed regime proposed in the hypothesis. The scientific content is not just a small geometric change: mixedness, entropy, and disorder-sensitive band structure all move in the same direction at the middle anisotropy, while strong striping instead locks the pattern into aligned bands. That is the signature of a true interior crossover between IID noise and near-deterministic corridor formation. In Gray-Scott language, moderate correlated disorder maximizes competition between stripe ordering and local defect nucleation.

Langton Ant Highway Time73Science
CONFIRMED. Highway formation collapses sharply rather than gradually as initial black density increases. Detection stays near certain at rho0=0.00 and 0.01, falls to 0.71370 at rho0=0.02, drops to 0.00934 at rho0=0.05, and is absent in the sanitized aggregate for rho0>=0.20. Median emergence time also jumps from 9984 steps on the blank grid to 21449 at rho0=0.01 and 113713 at rho0=0.02, showing a strong kinetic bottleneck before failure becomes overwhelming. The data support a narrow disorder-sensitive transition in access to the highway basin rather than a smooth slowdown of the classic ant dynamics.

Exp Magma Dike Dualchamber Softmode Threshold63Science
REJECTED. Stronger dike-mediated compliance is producing a clean, symmetric soft mode, but not the bridge-localized chamber takeover the experiment tests for. Because the search saturates at the eta ceiling while dike occupancy remains far below target across sizes, the finite soft-mode threshold claim is not supported.
0
Exp Foodweb Refuge Omnivory Reactivity Threshold Gpu Gpu55Science
REJECTED. The proposed omnivory threshold is not supported by the sampled outputs. Rather than a refuge-supported reactive mode escaping into the middle and top layers at finite omnivory, the leading mode is already top-localized and almost always non-reactive all the way to the scan ceiling.
0
Exp Microgrid Bridge Support Reactivity Threshold Gpu Gpu63Science
REJECTED. Bridge-island support is not suppressing this microgrid reactive mode within the scanned support range. The sampled outputs show a textbook ceiling-saturated failure, with the bridge-localized amplification surviving intact at maximal support.
0
Exp Combined Compositionality54Science
REJECTED. The combined bottleneck-plus-orthogonality intervention is not showing a clean superadditive compositionality gain beyond the better single-intervention draws in the sampled payloads. The consistent signal is that bottlenecking changes rank strongly, but orthogonality does not reliably turn that into a qualitatively stronger OOD generalization regime.
0
Exp Dual Refuge Bridge Threshold58Science
REJECTED. Adding a weak second refuge plus corridor does not produce the hypothesized bridge-localized dominant mode anywhere in the scanned band. The operator remains a ceiling-saturated dual-refuge state with essentially zero corridor participation, so there is no evidence for a finite bridge-switch threshold.
0
Exp Microgrid Bridge Inertia Localization Threshold Gpu Gpu57Science
REJECTED. Bridge-concentrated inertia is not capturing the dominant symmetric reactivity mode in this stressed microgrid family within the scanned range. The queue is a strong ceiling-saturated null, with overwhelmingly non-bridge structure despite very large positive reactive growth.
0
Exp Signed Sbm Frustration Localization Threshold Gpu Gpu62Science
REJECTED. The frustrated shell never steals the leading spectral mode away from the planted community signal inside the searched band. Even at maximal frustration the top eigenvector remains almost perfectly community-aligned and not shell-localized, so the proposed takeover threshold is not supported.
0
Exp Intervention Timing Compositionality62Science
REJECTED. The data do not support the claimed early critical-period rescue mechanism for weight decay timing. In these runs, late-onset decay behaves much more like always-on decay than like the untreated baseline, while early-only decay fails to preserve the low-gap outcome.
0
Exp Sbm Spectral Detection Gpu58Science
REJECTED. This SBM queue is not showing a usable finite-size spectral detection crossover near the intended bound under the current setup. The raw outputs collapse to no-detection across the full scanned epsilon grid, so there is no supporting evidence here for the proposed universal threshold scaling.
0
Exp Spiked Matrix Heavy Tail Gpu58Science
NO EFFECT. The heavy-tail spike detector did report interior beta_c values, but across the 100 sampled payloads they scattered wildly from the floor near 0.10 up to about 1.33 with many discrete plateaus in between, so there is no single reproducible heavy-tail-shifted threshold emerging yet. The raw outputs support strong realization sensitivity rather than a clean finite-N critical point for the Student-t spike family under the present setup.
0
Exp Dale Law Gain Dispersion Threshold62Science
REJECTED. In this dense Dale-law ensemble, inhibitory gain dispersion does not trigger the predicted instability inside the searched band, and the leading mode does not concentrate on the highest-gain inhibitory subset. The reproducible signal is ceiling saturation with a still-stable spectrum rather than a finite destabilization threshold.
