AXIOM BOINC SESSION RESULTS LOG Session: 2026-03-03 19:48 (America/Denver) Workflow: Part 3 - Save & Upload (combined summary of Part 1 + Part 2) PART 1 VALIDATION, CREDIT, AND CLEANUP SUMMARY - Validation source log: validate_2026-03-03_1946.txt. - Results reviewed and credited: 6,353 completed exp_* results. - Credit awarded: 10,000 total (session cap reached). - Outcome mix in credited batch: 6,336 success, 17 failed/error. - Credited ID span reviewed in this pass: 1,626,464 -> 1,634,412. - Upload payload quality in reviewed batch: 6,353 missing payload files (0 experiment_result payloads, 0 error payloads detected in upload paths at validation time). - Top user credit additions: Steve Dodd +3,286; WTBroughton +2,770; ChelseaOilman +1,270; kotenok2000 +469; marmot +467; Amapola +430; PyHelix +425. - Counter updates: credited_count 83,150 -> 89,503 (+6,353); total_results_count remained 54,859. - Post-session uncredited backlog snapshot: success 11,227; failed 58,397. STUCK/BROKEN TASK CLEANUP - Stuck task checks (>12h running with >6h dead host, and >48h hard ceiling): no tasks matched cleanup criteria. - Cleanup actions applied: 0 dead-host aborts; 0 hard-ceiling aborts. - Broken active experiment aborts in this pass: none required. PART 2 RESEARCH, DESIGN, AND DEPLOYMENT SUMMARY - Auto-review source log: run_2026-03-03_1352.log. - Retirement/over-seeding safety pass executed before deployment. - Retirement candidates detected (e.g., svdrank, wdlr, wdwindow, wdoptim, repcrystal), but unsent counts were zero in this pass. - Abort total from retirement pass: ABORT_TOTAL=0. - Literature/novelty checks were documented in-run with web searches focused on: - weight decay + batch size interaction - scheduled/adaptive weight decay - label smoothing interaction with weight decay - New experiment scripting/deployment work in this run: - New CPU experiment authored and uploaded: wd_batchnoise_interaction.py (server-side py_compile OK). - CPU deployment completed with scripts: wd_batchnoise_interaction.py and wd_labelsmooth_interaction.py. CPU DEPLOYMENT DETAIL - CPU hosts considered for fill: 81 - Hosts skipped due low RAM policy (<6 GB): 2 - CPU workunits created: 2,937 - Placement policy used in run: target up to ~3x CPU queue depth per active host, with duplicate-name checks. GPU CHECKPOINT - GPU deployment pass started separately (appid=2) using scripts: - wd_curvature_trigger_gpu.py - wd_timing_scale_gpu.py - The recorded run log shows the GPU deployment command was interrupted before completion summary output. - GPU hosts count and GPU WU count are therefore not present in the captured log output for this run. KEY SCIENTIFIC FINDINGS 1. No new payload-backed mechanistic result was established in the validation pass; reviewed credited items were dominated by missing upload artifacts. 2. No reversal signal appeared against the current inverse critical period / weight-decay timing conclusions. 3. Part 2 shifted the queue toward mechanism-isolating interaction tests (batch-noise x late-WD and GPU curvature/timing probes), which are expected to test causal gating hypotheses in subsequent result-return cycles. NOTES - Cumulative credited-result ID tracking is intentionally omitted here (database remains source of truth). - This session log is formatted for website "Latest Findings" extraction.
