AXIOM BOINC SESSION LOG Session timestamp: 2026-03-04 (CET) Session type: Save/Upload wrap-up after validation + deployment/design work RESULTS REVIEWED AND CREDIT AWARDED - Validation scope reviewed newly completed successful experiment results with pending credit (server_state=5, outcome=1, granted_credit=0, exp_*). - Credited this validation batch: 726 results (all reviewed payloads contained valid experiment_result JSON). - Session credit awarded: 5798.00 (cap check <=10000: PASS). - Credit policy applied by elapsed time tiers: <20s => 2, 20-119s => 4, 120-599s => 8, >=600s => 12. - Website counters updated during validation: credited_count.txt: 19358 -> 20084 total_results_count.txt: 52353 -> 52533 STUCK/BROKEN TASK CLEANUP - Dead-host stuck-task cleanup (>12h runtime and >6h no contact): 0 aborted. - Hard-ceiling cleanup (>48h runtime): 0 aborted. - Broken-experiment aborts this session: none (active lines checked; no line met abort threshold). NEW EXPERIMENTS DESIGNED AND NOVELTY CHECK 1. wd_imbalance_interaction.py (CPU) - Novelty check queries covered weight decay/class imbalance interaction and prior AdamW/class-balanced-loss literature. - Prior art found for decoupled WD and class-balanced weighting, but no direct late-WD-timing x class-imbalance mechanism test in this controlled replicated setup. - Design focus: whether late WD and class-balanced weighting combine additively or show nonlinear interaction on minority OOD recall. 2. wd_anisotropy_trigger_gpu.py (GPU-aware) - Novelty check queries covered adaptive/scheduled WD and geometry-based timing ideas. - Prior adaptive/scheduled WD art found, but no direct anisotropy-stabilization trigger test against fixed-late onset in this BOINC replicated framework. - Design focus: causal test of representation-geometry gating for WD onset. DEPLOYMENT CONTEXT (PART 2) - CPU WUs created for wd_imbalance_interaction.py: 4977 total (2561 targeted + 2416 untargeted fallback). - GPU WUs created for wd_anisotropy_trigger_gpu.py: 587 total (307 targeted + 280 untargeted fallback). - Transitioner/transition_time refresh executed after creation passes. KEY SCIENTIFIC FINDINGS 1. wd_imbalance_interaction (88 reviewed runs): synergy stayed consistently positive; mean synergy_delta +0.0634 (range 0.0597..0.0664), with mean minority-recall lift vs CE-only +0.2055 (range 0.2009..0.2104). 2. wd_labelsmooth_interaction (151 reviewed runs): interaction signal remained strong; prediction_3_interaction_present=true in 92.1% of runs, attenuation flag true in 28.5%. 3. wd_batchnoise_interaction (98 reviewed runs): interaction_gain_difference remained strongly positive (mean +0.3256), with interaction_positive_rate mean 0.9990. 4. wd_anisotropy_trigger_gpu (6 reviewed GPU runs): adaptive trigger epoch stable at 24.0; adaptive_minus_fixed mean effect -0.00018 (mixed sign; no robust adaptive advantage yet). KEY TAKEAWAY - CPU interaction lines continue to show robust positive interaction effects across the newly reviewed batch; anisotropy-trigger GPU line remains promising but underpowered and requires larger completed sample size for decisive comparison.
