Cortex v0.4.0 — Spiking Recall & Cross-Domain Reasoning
Spiking Recall Resurrection
- Fire BFS-discovered concepts into the 2B-synapse spiking network
- 30-step propagation through association cortex with raised synaptic clamp (1.5)
- Neuromodulator-driven recall: focused mode (high ACh) for single-topic, broad mode (high NE) for cross-domain
- Emergent associations discovered through lateral neural pathways
- Confidence tags: [confirmed] (BFS+spiking), [explicit] (BFS only), [emergent] (spiking only)
Synaptic Knowledge Imprinting
- When triples are learned, strengthen actual CSR weights between concept assembly neurons
- 803 synapses imprinted per 13-triple learning batch (delta 0.8/0.8/0.4)
- Persisted triples re-imprinted on startup
- Imprinted weights cap at 1.0 (2x the normal 0.5 background)
Persistent Cumulative Knowledge
- Triples persist to
data/triples.log(pipe-delimited, append-only) - Topic registry in
data/topics.json(deduplication, provenance) - Knowledge survives server restarts: 24 topics, 816 concepts, 1195 associations
- Weight cap raised to 2.0 for multi-source reinforcement
Cross-Domain Reasoning
- Bidirectional BFS: query matches 2+ concept clusters, BFS from both sides, find bridge nodes
- Bridge concept detection: "kv cache" shared between TurboQuant and FlashAttention
- Cross-domain answers: LLM connects knowledge from different YouTube videos
