AXIOM BOINC SESSION RESULTS LOG Session: 2026-03-04 07:20 (Part 3 save/upload) Sources: validate_2026-03-04_0716.txt, run_2026-03-03_1352.log, findings_summary.txt PART 1 VALIDATION / CREDIT SUMMARY - Results reviewed and credited: 1110 terminal rows. - Total credit awarded: 3802. - Credited mix: success=389, failed=721; CPU=1053, GPU=57. - Remaining uncredited after pass: success=0, failed=0. - Top credit additions: ChelseaOilman +1942 (794 results), Amapola +1342 (223), Orange Kid +192 (32), PyHelix +112 (22). CLEANUP ACTIONS - Stuck tasks aborted (dead host >12h running, >6h no contact): 0. - Stuck tasks aborted (hard >48h runtime): 0. - Broken experiment global aborts: none in Part 1 (failure burst appeared host-specific, not confirmed multi-host script bug). - Part 2 retirement pass: ABORT_TOTAL=0 (no new unsent retirements required in that pass). PART 2 DEPLOYMENT SUMMARY (from run_2026-03-03_1352.log) CPU deployment - Targeting policy: fill to ~3x CPU queue per active host; skip hosts with <6 GB RAM. - CPU hosts evaluated: 81. - Low-RAM hosts skipped: 2. - CPU workunits created: 2937. - CPU scripts deployed: wd_batchnoise_interaction.py, wd_labelsmooth_interaction.py. GPU deployment checkpoint - GPU deployment pass started with scripts: wd_curvature_trigger_gpu.py, wd_timing_scale_gpu.py. - Run log shows interruption during GPU deployment execution (Ctrl-C before summary printout). - Live checkpoint at 2026-03-04 07:20: - Active GPU hosts (appid=2, queued/running): 9 - Active GPU workunits (appid=2, queued/running): 42 - Active by script family: wd_curvature_trigger_gpu=7, wd_timing_scale_gpu=9 NEW EXPERIMENT DESIGN + NOVELTY CHECK DOCUMENTATION - New script authored and uploaded: wd_batchnoise_interaction.py. - Server compile check passed: python3 -m py_compile .../wd_batchnoise_interaction.py -> OK. - Novelty/search evidence recorded in run log (Part 2): - arXiv/domain searches on weight decay x label smoothing interaction. - arXiv/domain searches on adaptive/scheduled weight decay and batch-size interaction. - Query references include decoupled weight decay regularization context (arXiv:1711.05101). - Hypothesis encoded in new script: late weight-decay benefit should be stronger under small-batch gradient noise than large-batch regimes (interaction test). KEY SCIENTIFIC FINDINGS 1. No new payload-level scientific signal extraction was possible in this validation pass because retrievable upload JSON artifacts remained absent for audited rows. 2. Volunteer compute throughput remains strong (large CPU completion volume with sustained GPU participation) despite payload retrieval bottlenecks. 3. A concentrated reliability event was observed on host 340 (Foxtrot-3): widespread zero-elapsed, empty-stderr failures across multiple experiment families, consistent with host/runtime instability rather than confirmed experiment-wide model failure. 4. Newly deployed WD interaction line (wd_batchnoise_interaction) formalizes a testable mechanistic hypothesis linking batch-noise scale to late-WD gain magnitude. OPERATIONAL NOTES - Website counters after Part 1: credited_count.txt=4848, total_results_count.txt=4127. - This log intentionally omits cumulative result-ID lists; database state is the source of truth.
