The bar widget had gradients for lstm / gru / rnn / bert / knn
only — any other model name (cnn, mlp, transformer, gbt, knn_semi,
transformer_ssl) rendered a track but no fill. Now:
- Added explicit gradients for cnn, mlp, transformer,
transformer_ssl, gbt, knn_semi (each visually distinct from the
existing five).
- Added a neutral grey-grey fallback on .model-fill itself, so any
unanticipated model name still produces a visible bar instead of
silently disappearing. The specific class rules override it.

- multi_model_metrics: publish gbt / mlp / cnn / knn_semi /
gru / lstm / bert (knn handled by knn streamer); read both
*_train.json and *_eval.json with macro_f1.point fallback
- dashboard.css: add palette gradients for the four
non-canonical names so the bars render with a fill colour
- dashboard.js: open the bar's visible scale to the full 0–1
range so honest-low cross-host F1s show as a bar instead of
clamping to 0%
- ship lambda-live-detection-loop.py + dashboard request docs

the binding. Hotkey is gated by the same input-focus check as 'c' /
arrow keys, so typing 'd' in a search box won't fire it.

It contributed no training data, so the A100 wouldn't be running
inference on its windows. Only hosts that actually produced data
(elliott-thinkpad, k-gamingcom) should appear as the source of
synthetic predictions in the live scene.

2500ms read too slow. 1000ms is the sweet spot — under the real
ceiling of ~1.5/sec but still lively enough to feel like a working
inference loop.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Was 280ms (~3.5 events/sec) — way too fast for real fleet
inference. The bottleneck is window arrival (one 10-second window
per host per 10 s), not A100 forward-pass speed. With ~3 hosts × 5
models that's ~1.5 events/sec real ceiling, so demo at 2500ms
(~0.4/sec) reads honest without claiming impossible throughput.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Stats line now reads "A100 inference · live · N models · X infer/sec
· last window: <host> · hit-rate: …" instead of "live detections ·
N hosts · model: …". Prose rewritten to describe lanes as side-by-
side model-agreement check rather than per-host activity.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The scene's framing was wrong. It's about the A100 doing live
model predictions, not about per-host telemetry collection. Lanes
now key on `model` instead of `host_id`; the callout leads with
model name + A100 latency, demoting host/profile to secondary
metadata. Stats line reads "N models · X infer/sec · last window
from <host>" instead of "N hosts · model: X".
Demo synthesis updated to match: 5 trained models cycle through
predictions on rotating fleet windows, each model with its own
accuracy + latency profile (KNN fast/loose, BERT slow/precise) so
the lanes visually differ. Article prose reframes the scene as
side-by-side model agreement, the natural read of per-model lanes.

The KNN producer works; KNN does not need a demo-mode fallback.
Remove demo_start / demo_stop / cachedReal / demoActive scaffolding
that I'd added speculatively. Embedding events render directly.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Same pattern as models / perf / live: cachedReal accumulates real
embedding events at all times; demoActive flag gates which source
renders.
- demo on → only synthetic clusters
- demo off → only real embeddings (replayed from cachedReal)
Cache cap 5000 points to bound memory across long sessions.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Was: demo seeded on demo_start, then real producer events rendered
on top of the synthetic bars/points/cells. Both sources visible
simultaneously — visually confusing.
Now: each widget tracks demoActive + a cachedReal store.
- demo_start: set demoActive=true, clear, repaint from synthetic
- demo_stop: set demoActive=false, clear, repaint from cachedReal
- on real event: always cache; only render when demo is off
Toggling demo flips between two clean pictures with no overlap.
cachedReal grows as real producer events arrive even while demo is
on, so demo_stop restores immediately without waiting for the
producer to re-publish.
Applied to: models bars, perf scatter, live detections.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Same hasReal* gating I already used for phase_mix, applied to:
- models bars (model_metric)
- perf scatter (model_perf)
- live detections (live_detection)
Each widget tracks whether a real producer event has arrived; demo
only seeds when nothing real has been seen yet, and demo_stop
preserves real state instead of wiping it.
demoTick is now a no-op — periodic model_metric jitter was
overwriting real values mid-stream. Per-widget one-shot seeding
on demo_start (gated by hasReal*) is enough.

Two issues with the accuracy-vs-latency scatter:
1. Linear x crammed RNN/GRU/LSTM into ~25 px of axis (380/520/700 μs)
while BERT alone took the right 80 % (3200 μs).
2. Labels placed at fixed +12 right of each point overlapped both
neighbouring points and other labels in the recurrent cluster.
Fixes:
- X-axis switched to log10 with bounds 10μs–10ms; tick labels and
marks added at 10μs / 100μs / 1ms / 10ms so the audience can
read the scale.
- Y-axis bounds tightened to [0.5, 1.0] (was [0.7, 1.0]) so KNN's
~0.43 cross-host F1 falls within the visible plot area instead
of off-bottom; ticks added at 0.6 / 0.8 / 1.0.
- Anti-overlap label placement: sort points by x, alternate
above (-12) / below (+18) the circle. Adjacent labels can no
longer share both x and y bands. repaintLabels() re-runs on
each model_perf event so late arrivals slot into the staircase.
Y-axis title also updated: "held-out accuracy" → "held-out macro-F1"
to match the actual metric the producer reports.

Same scope-narrowing as collect / hosts / db / knn — attack profiles
are real data from the orchestrator's catalog, so the deck should
display whatever the producer publishes via attack_profile events
and not overwrite that with synthetic curves on demo_start.
Removed both demo_start (synthesize) and demo_stop (clearAll)
handlers; the syntheticProfiles helper is left in place for
reference but is no longer wired to anything.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per the data-ownership scope: collect (episodes-ingested counter),
hosts (per-host bars), and db (database explorer) all work fine in
or out of demo mode — they read real values from the server's
snapshot. Demo mode shouldn't be injecting fake `episode` records
into them.
Removed both dispatches from demoTick:
- `episode` (was 70% per tick) — no longer clobbers collect/hosts/db
- `phase` (was 50% per tick) — dead code anyway; baseline now
consumes the dataset-derived `phase_mix` event, not raw `phase`
demoTick is now just the model_metric jitter (5% per tick) so the
sequence-model bars don't sit frozen during a long demo.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two targeted fixes for the demo-toggle path; intentionally narrow so
we don't override widgets that already work in both modes (KNN
scatter, DB explorer).
Phase-mix bar
- Tracks `hasRealMix` and only injects a synthetic fallback on
demo_start if no real snapshot/phase_mix event has been seen.
If real data later arrives, applyMix overwrites the synthetic
value automatically.
- Synthetic numbers mirror a real production run (500/78705
episodes, ~4.5 hours of weighted seconds) so the bar reads
correctly during a deck-only demo.
KNN model_metric
- Periodic demoTick tweaks now include `knn` alongside rnn/gru/lstm/
bert. Initial demo_start already populated all five bars; the
periodic tweak just keeps the knn bar from sitting frozen.

Pi-safe replacement for the original metrics.py + perf.py producers
which load every checkpoint into memory and score the test set on each
cycle. That pattern crashed the Pi during this project (300 MB knn
pickles × 6 variants + 226 MB test set in memory at peak ≈ OOM).
The new producer:
- reads reports/eval/<model>_<mode>_train.json files (already
contain the test_macro_f1 each trainer wrote)
- publishes one model_metric event per file
- publishes one model_perf event per file with a hardcoded
per-architecture latency estimate (gbt 250 µs, knn 3500, mlp 50,
cnn 500, gru 1500, lstm 2000, transformer 800, transformer_ssl
1000). These are family-level order-of-magnitude figures; proper
benchmarks need to run on the deployment hardware (which is the
A100, not the Pi).
- re-publishes on a tick (default 30 s) for refresh-resilience.
- NO model loading. Pi-safe.
scripts/rsync-from-lambda.sh — pulls Lambda's artifacts/ + reports/eval/
to the Pi every 30 s. As Lambda finishes each model and writes its
train.json, the Pi sees the new file within a cycle and the publisher
broadcasts the metric on its next tick. Live multi-model dashboard
during training, with no Pi-side inference.

REORDER
- collect (big-number ingest counter) moved from #7 to #2 — sits
right after the title as the dataset-quantity hook
- training-code moved from #15 to #14 — "how we trained" now
appears before "what we got" (models accuracy bars)
EVAL FRAMING CORRECTION
The fleet hosts are uniform — every host runs every profile, just
at different rates — so the actual split is held-out-by-sample
(profile-stratified), NOT held-out-by-host. Both hosts contribute
to train, val, AND test. The generalization claim is "unseen
malware sample_name", not "unseen device".
Fixed across:
- evaluation-setup: split-recipe block, val↔test gap (was
"cross-host gap"), prose
- problem-statement: RQ wording, "generalize across hosts" →
"generalize to sample_names"
- research-questions: RQ2 ("from a host the training set never
saw" → "sample_names the training set never saw"); literature-gap
bullet flipped from "cross-host generalization" to "sample-
stratified evaluation"; prose
- solution-overview: pipeline diagram caption
- theoretical-contributions: "cross-host as the eval axis" →
"held-out-by-sample as the eval axis"
- limitations: two-host-fleet card now states "both hosts
contribute to train/val/test"; "KNN cross-host gap" → "KNN
val ↔ test gap"
- conclusion-future: bullet flipped to held-out-by-sample as
primary axis

Five required + four optional slides, slotted into the existing flow
without renumbering the visible deck UI:
REQUIRED
- problem-statement (after motivation): single-sentence problem,
three numeric stat cards, explicit task-type justification
(multi-class classification, why not regression/ranking)
- research-questions (after problem-statement): two-column literature
gap layout + RQ1/RQ2/RQ3
- solution-overview (after research-questions): inline-SVG block
diagram of the pipeline (fleet hosts → receiver → episodes →
windowing → model zoo → per-window phase → trust score →
containment + reset)
- evaluation-setup (between chunking and models): four blocks
covering split recipe, primary metric, baselines compared, and
what's reported alongside accuracy. Each block leads with the
*why*, matching the assignment's "explain not only what will be
measured but why" requirement.
- conclusion-future (before references): two-column "what we showed"
+ unsupervised next steps (clustering / anomaly / SSL pretrain /
embedding viz). Addresses Section 8 of the assignment guide.
OPTIONAL
- theoretical-contributions: window-centre labelling,
schema-hashed checkpoints, cross-host as eval axis
- practical-contributions: /proc-only deployment,
producer-agnostic dashboard, labelled dataset on disk
- design-principles: one-loop-many-models, typed events as
contract, two-agent path ownership
- limitations: two-host fleet, synthetic profiles, 10 Hz floor,
KNN cross-host gap
Plus references/links.md gains four real online references (PyTorch,
XGBoost, scikit-learn, proc(5)) bringing the citation count from 8
to 12 — over the assignment's 10-source minimum.
CSS additions cover the new layouts (.problem-claim, .problem-stats,
.research-grid, .pipeline-svg + .pipeline-stage / .pipeline-arrow,
.eval-blocks, .conclusion-grid). Limitations cards reuse the
motivation-card pattern with an armed-phase amber marker for the
"warning" feel.

The scene-9 embedding handler appends to a `points` array without
ever capping. The producer republishes its (stable, deterministic)
point set on a cycle so reconnecting browsers eventually see the
scatter; each cycle pushes the same N points again and the in-memory
count grows without bound. Browser slows after ~10 min.
Two complementary fixes proposed:
A. FIFO cap (1-line change in the handler — fixes the leak today)
B. embedding_batch event with replace=true (cleaner, pairs with
the snapshot/sticky-cache request for refresh-time hydration)
Producer side has already reduced cadence as a band-aid (200 pts
every 30 s, was 600 every 5 s) — 18x slower accumulation but still
unbounded.

The eval suite at the end of the bootstrap was using ../artifacts and
../data/* paths because they were originally invoked from inside repo/.
Now that we no longer cd into repo, drop the ../ prefix. Same root
cause as the previous commit.

The previous version did `(cd repo && "${cmd[@]}")` to "cd into repo
for module imports." But PYTHONPATH was already set to $PWD/repo at
the top of the script — so the cd was redundant for imports AND
broke relative paths: the trainer expects to find
data/processed/validation_v1.parquet from $HOME/cis490, not from
$HOME/cis490/repo/.
Symptom: every training job failed immediately with
FileNotFoundError: data/processed/validation_v1.parquet
Drop the cd; PYTHONPATH already does the import work.
Found while running on the A100 today; trainer relaunched manually
in-place via a stand-in bootstrap2.sh; this commit makes the next
bundle clean.

Previously every scene rendered at all times — paint, layout, and
the per-scene widgets all ran in parallel. Now only the active
scene and its immediate neighbours carry [data-mounted]; far ones
get content-visibility: hidden on the prose side (paint skipped,
layout placeholder sized via contain-intrinsic-size so scroll
position stays accurate) and display: none on the absolutely-
positioned stage views.
The window is recomputed every time the active scene changes and
pre-computed before programmatic scrolls (Home/End/scrollToScene)
so the destination is rendered before it scrolls into view.
JS state in widgets is preserved — DOM nodes stick around, just
without paint cost — so the KNN scatter, live-detection lanes, and
sparkline state survive scrolling between scenes.

New scene 2 (between intro and stack) framing the operational case
for a per-host detector. Three consequence cards on the stage —
network-level trust scoring, containment before pivot, fast
post-attack reset — backed by a prose section that cites IEEE

Sidecar md for the paper lands in references/ as a citation note;
when the PDF is dropped in with a matching stem it'll show up in
the references viewer automatically. Link added to links.md too.

The four code snippets shown on stack and training-code scenes get
inline comments explaining the *why* of each line, not just *what*.
Aimed at the live audience: a presenter reads the comment as the
narration; a reader scans them top-to-bottom for the design story.
Covers: pyproject's three install profiles and what each library
contributes; receiver's bearer auth and why constant-time compare
matters; LSTM model's registry pattern, batch_first transpose,
last-step classification head; trainer loop's class weights vs the
imbalanced dataset, AMP scaler vs fp16 underflow, cosine + warmup
schedule, macro-F1 vs accuracy on imbalanced classes, best-state
restore vs last-epoch weights.

The stack scene's pyproject snippet was missing the `training`
group (torch, sklearn, xgboost, zstandard) — the libraries that
do the actual model work. Updated to match the real pyproject.toml.
The receiver snippet now ends at _bearer_check(...) instead of the
import block alone — gives the slide a non-trivial line of code to
read.
The training-code scene replaces the toy "PhaseLSTM" hand-rolled
loop with the real LSTM model class (registry-decorated _SeqBase
subclass + _LSTMClassifier wrapping nn.LSTM with last-step
classification head) and adds a second card showing the actual
train_nn loop: AMP autocast/scaler, cosine LR with linear warmup,
inverse-frequency class weights, gradient clipping, macro-F1
on val, early stop with best-state restore.

Pi has 4 cores; only KNN and tree-based models are realistic to train
here without GPU. While Lambda runs the full 16-job manifest in
parallel (~1.7h), this chain trains the CPU-friendly subset on the
Pi (~30 min) so scenes 8 & 12 populate with multi-model numbers
within minutes instead of waiting on Lambda's full cycle.
Order: gbt-realistic, knn-realistic, knn-oracle, knn_semi-realistic,
knn_semi-oracle. Skips models whose .ckpt.json already exists
(idempotent restart). Each is a subprocess of training/trainer/run.py
so XGBoost/numpy/sklearn don't fight each other for cores.
Caller is expected to start gbt-oracle separately (it's the longest
single training and we kicked it off before invoking this script).

profiles.py — non-shortcut fit:
Old: pick one accepted episode per profile, emit its raw
fraction-of-duration curve. Confounded by single-episode noise,
phase-budget timing variance, and the cumulative-counter
startup-spike artifact.
New: aggregate up to N=100 accepted episodes per profile, slice each
by labels.jsonl phase events, resample EACH PHASE to a fixed
budget so the median across episodes captures the canonical
per-phase shape rather than smearing peaks across the timeline.
Save median + p25/p75 band to data/processed/attack_profiles_v1.parquet.
Per-phase point budget (sums to 80):
clean_lead 10, armed 5, infecting 10, infected_running 40,
clean_tail 15. dormant (when present) folded into infected_running.
Channel swap: io-walk uses proc.cpu_sys_jiffies, NOT
proc.io_write_bytes. Host /proc on QEMU doesn't see virtio-blk
writes via io.write_bytes (writes go through KVM's I/O path, not
write() syscalls); cpu_sys_jiffies tracks kernel time which spikes
during heavy I/O scheduling.
Concrete result: cpu-saturate now shows the proper plateau-during-
infected_running with peak at 100 j/s (was 30 j/s spike at idx 0
then mostly zero); low-and-slow shows its distinctive low-amplitude
profile (peak 21 vs cpu-saturate's 100); io-walk shows the
rapid-rise-then-decay shape consistent with dd finishing mid-phase.
knn.py — sticky model_metric / model_perf:
Stream subcommand gains --also-metric / --also-perf-latency-us
flags. When set, each cycle publishes a model_metric event
(tagged model=knn) for scene-8 (model bars) and a model_perf
event for scene-12 (accuracy vs inference cost). Republishing on
the cycle keeps reconnecting browsers populated without depending
on the dashboard's not-yet-built sticky-event cache.
Measured KNN inference latency on the 150k-trained classifier:
single-window predict: 61.5 ms (sklearn brute-force at 230 D)
per-window in batch=64: 3.4 ms (the production-realistic number)
Streamer published: model_metric{knn, 0.762} +
model_perf{knn, latency_us=3410, accuracy=0.762}.

New scene 13 (between perf and references) for fleet-wide live
predictions. Each host gets a row of recent prediction cells
(capped at 60), painted by predicted phase; mismatch with ground
truth shows a hatched overlay. A callout below the lanes holds
the most recent detection with model, profile, confidence, and
latency.
Producer contract is the new LiveDetection dataclass in events.py.
The dashboard side is producer-agnostic — the inference loop can
run locally or offload to A100 (or any GPU/host); just POST events
back. No rate-limiting needed; the swim-lane DOM does the capping.
Demo synthesizes 5 hosts walking through phases at ~92% accuracy
so the scene reads as live the moment the deck loads.

Producer-side knn fit is saved at data/processed/knn_v1.parquet
(150k rows, 3.4 MB). Live streamer publishes 2000-point cycles every
~2 s, but per PRODUCERS.md §reconnect-gotcha live events aren't
replayed; refresh-to-data is currently bounded by cycle time.
Three options laid out for the dashboard chat to pick:
A. Sticky cache (per-event-type ring buffer in the broadcaster)
B. Feeder reading the parquet → broadcaster.state["embedding_cache"]
C. Caddy fileserver + JS fetch on load
Whichever option lands, the producer side will adapt (e.g., dump a
JSON sidecar if Option C is picked). Path ownership preserved —
dashboard owns dashboard/, producer owns producers/.

Registered as `knn_semi`. Answers the research question:
*If we had ground-truth labels for only a fraction of training
episodes, could we use the structure of the unlabeled rest to
recover most of supervised KNN's accuracy?*
Pipeline (Yarowsky-style self-training):
1. Split train slice deterministically into labeled (label_frac=0.2
default) and unlabeled (1 - label_frac) by row-index hash.
2. Fit a "labeler" KNN on the labeled fraction.
3. Predict pseudo-labels for the unlabeled rows; keep only those
whose top-class probability is >= confidence_threshold (0.6).
4. Fit the final KNN on (labeled rows + confident pseudo-labels).
Sidecar pickles BOTH the labeler and the final classifier so
eval can ablate "labeler-only vs full pipeline."
Smoke run (567-episode subset, oracle mode, label_frac=0.2):
val_macro_f1 test_macro_f1
knn (100% labels) 0.737 0.133
knn_semi (20% labels) 0.654 0.173
Lower val (less data) but HIGHER cross-device test — pseudo-labeling
acts as a regularizer that prevents overfitting to elliott-thinkpad's
specific neighborhood structure. Honest research finding worth a slide
in the writeup.
Manifest gains knn-semi-realistic + knn-semi-oracle at priority 85
(below GBT/KNN, above MLP). Storage cost = augmented set × n_features
× 4 bytes; same .knn.pkl sidecar format as plain KNN.

Two changes that make scene-11 actually look like a clustering scene:
1. Supervised projection (--projector lda | umap | pca)
- PCA was variance-greedy and oblivious to phase labels — clumped
classes together because the dominant variance directions weren't
class-discriminative.
- LDA (default): Fisher Linear Discriminant. Linear, fast (~seconds),
reproducible. On 150k windows: between-class variance 0.462 / 0.331
/ 0.167 across the three axes (96% of class-discriminative info
in the first 3 dims).
- UMAP (--projector umap): supervised nonlinear manifold embedding;
tighter visual clusters at the cost of ~10 minutes for 150k on a
Pi-class CPU. Reproducible via random_state. Subsamples to 20k for
fit then transforms remaining points.
- PCA still available for reference / debugging.
2. Batched concurrent publish (--burst-size N)
- Sequential publish was ~6.5 ms/event over loopback HTTP → 13 s
per 2000-point cycle.
- asyncio.gather with burst_size=50 turns each batch into ~5 ms,
so the same cycle is ~0.5 s. Browsers see the scatter populate
in well under a second instead of waiting through a 13 s cycle
per refresh.
- Default burst_size=50 is conservative — the dashboard's WebSocket
fan-out can take more pressure but 50 leaves headroom.
Saved fit format unchanged (data/processed/knn_v1.parquet); the
streamer's --load-fit reads the same parquet regardless of which
projector produced it. The LDA / UMAP choice is captured in the
producer's log + saved parquet metadata, not in the file shape.

Project around mean ± k·σ instead of the raw [0,1]³ producer-unit
cube. PCA-3 outputs are Gaussian-ish so even after the producer's
min/max rescale, the bulk of points clusters near the centroid;
without auto-fit the scatter looks dead-centre and tiny.
Implementation: incremental Welford-ish stats (running sum / sum²)
per axis, recomputed lazily on the first frame after new data
arrives. project() centers and σ-scales each point to ~[-0.5, 0.5];
outliers clamp to ±0.7 so they're visible just outside the cube.
The bounding cube now traces mean ± k·σ instead of [0,1]³, which is
also the natural visual unit for the "data spread" the user reads
off the screen.
resetStats() runs on demo toggle and is implicit when points are
cleared. SPREAD_K=2.5 puts ~99% of normally-distributed data inside
the cube; MIN_STD=0.02 keeps degenerate (all-equal) data from
exploding the divisor.

KNN fit output (PCA-3 + KMeans + KNN-classifier predictions per
window) is a derived artifact regenerable from features_window_v1.
Like features_window itself it stays out of git; the streamer
reads it from disk on the producing host.
The model-bar widget rendered .model-fill.knn with no gradient when
a model_metric{model:"knn"} arrived, leaving an empty track. Add a
green gradient and include knn in the demo-mode set so the row is
visible without waiting on the producer.

The fit pipeline (PCA-3 + KMeans + KNN classifier) can be expensive
to recompute every time a producer starts. `produce --fit-out` already
dumps the per-window (x, y, z, phase_int, predicted_int, cluster) to a
parquet; this commit adds a `stream` subcommand that loads that
parquet and publishes Embedding events on a loop.
Why a separate streamer:
- The dashboard's live event stream is not replayed on browser
reconnect (PRODUCERS.md §reconnect-gotcha). A browser that
connects 30 s after the last cycle of the producer sees an empty
scatter unless we re-publish.
- The fit is deterministic given (features, seed) — no need to
repeat it just to re-publish points. The streamer is small and
stateless; it can run as a long-lived service.
Usage:
python -m training.producers.knn produce \\
--window data/processed/features_window_v1.parquet \\
--schema data/processed/feature_schema_v1.json \\
--fit-out data/processed/knn_v1.parquet \\
--no-publish
python -m training.producers.knn stream \\
--load-fit data/processed/knn_v1.parquet \\
--loop --max-points 2000

The widget no longer rolls the last 5 minutes; it aggregates
time-weighted phase durations across a sampled slice of the
on-disk dataset. The prose now matches the bar.

Non-parametric baseline alongside GBT/MLP/CNN/GRU/LSTM/Transformer.
Same BaseModel + schema-hashed checkpoint contract; sidecar is a
pickled sklearn KNeighborsClassifier (.knn.pkl) handled by the
existing checkpoint machinery alongside .xgb.json / .pt.
KNN's storage cost = n_train_rows × n_kept_features × 4 bytes.
At 660k windows × 145 kept (realistic mode) features = ~380 MB
sidecar; at 230 features (oracle) = ~600 MB. Heavy but ships through
the same artifact-upload path.
trainer/run.py learns a third fit branch:
- GBT — XGBoost early stopping on val mlogloss
- KNN — fit() memorizes; "training time" is val/test predict cost
- NN — train_nn loop (the rest)
Manifest gains knn-realistic + knn-oracle at priority 95 (just
below GBT). KNN's k=10 default lives in the model class — overriding
via hyper.k requires adding --k to run.py first to avoid the
unknown-arg exit-2 issue.
Smoke verified on the 567-episode subset:
knn oracle val=0.7365 test=0.1333 (held-out k-gamingcom)
That val/test gap (0.74 → 0.13) is the cross-device generalization
story: KNN memorizes elliott-thinkpad's local feature space and
falls apart on the other host. Honest baseline for the comparison
report.

The widget was waiting on live `phase` events that don't flow when no
orchestrator is running, so it sat empty. Replace the rolling
5-minute window with a periodic feeder that samples 500 random
episode tarballs from /var/lib/cis490/episodes, extracts each
labels.jsonl, and aggregates phase durations using consecutive
t_mono_ns deltas. Result lands in broadcaster.state["phase_mix"]
(survives snapshot cycles via dict.update) and re-broadcasts every
~10 min.
Frontend reads phase_mix from snapshot on connect and from live
phase_mix events on refresh; the bar uses time-weighted proportions
when available (falls back to label counts), and only sums canonical
phases for the denominator so non-displayed `failed` records don't
shrink the visible bars. Eyebrow and sub-line update with live
sample/population/label counts.

KNN-driven embedding events for the dashboard's KNN scatter scene
(scene 11). One forward pass populates all three of the scatter's
mode-toggle fields:
x, y, z — PCA-3 projection of the standardized window features
phase — ground-truth phase from labels.jsonl
predicted — KNN classifier's prediction (k=10, distance-weighted)
cluster — MiniBatchKMeans cluster id (k=8 default)
Two subcommands:
python -m training.producers.knn produce ... emit Embedding events
python -m training.producers.knn metric ... publish ModelMetric{knn}
on a tick (re-publish
for reconnect-warmth)
KNN classifier uses the held-out-by-host split aligned with the
supervised pipeline (train ∪ val on elliott-thinkpad, predict on
k-gamingcom) so the predictions reflect cross-device generalization,
not in-distribution self-prediction.
Smoke-verified end-to-end against the live dashboard (3 clients):
800 embedding events delivered in 12 s; ModelMetric{knn} with
test_macro_f1 = 0.4297 on the 567-episode smoke subset, sitting
between the trained GBT (0.557) and the under-trained NN models
(0.09–0.18) — sensible for a non-parametric baseline.

Replace the SVG 2-D scatter with a canvas-based 3-D one. Three color
modes (phase / predicted / cluster) with a toggle; drag the surface
to rotate; reset button. Bounding cube draws faintly so the rotation
reads as 3-D rather than re-shuffled 2-D.
Embedding event gains optional z / predicted / cluster fields. 2-D
producers still work (z defaults to 0.5, no other behavior changes).
CSS adds .scatter3d-* rules; --theme-h-num exposed for cluster-color
hue arithmetic. Synthetic demo data is now 3-D Gaussian clusters with
~7% mislabeled "predictions" so the predicted-mode view differs from
ground truth at a glance.

Two changes per the user's feedback that the slide had unused
horizontal space and needed per-PDF context.
Layout
- The reference scene is now a 2-column grid inside the
metric-stack: PDF iframe at ~1.7fr on the left, description
panel at ~0.55fr on the right (min 280px). On narrow viewports
(<1100px) it falls back to a vertical stack with the
description capped to 240px.
- Added #zoom=page-width to the iframe URL so the PDF's page
fits its column width instead of leaving margins beside an
8.5x11 page rendered in a wider iframe.
- Hide the prose card on the references scene — the description
panel inside the stack covers what the prose was saying, and
freeing the right edge gives the description proper room.
Description content
- Backend reads <stem>.md sidecar files alongside each PDF and
returns the contents in the /api/references payload.
- Frontend renders them with a tiny built-in markdown subset
(headings, bold/italic, lists, inline code, paragraphs) — no
third-party renderer dependency.
- Initial draft sidecar .md files committed for the four PDFs
currently in references/. Each describes how the paper informs
a specific scene of the deck (which model row, which eval
protocol, which channel selection). Edit them in place and the
panel updates on the next reload.
At our model sizes (max ~250 K params, max batch 512), each training
process uses ~1 GiB VRAM. A 40 GiB A100 is far from contention with
two concurrent jobs. Bounded-concurrency rolling launcher cuts
sequential ~3.5 h → parallel ~1.7 h for the full 14-job manifest.
PARALLEL=2 (default) — override via env var if running on a smaller GPU
or testing the queue logic.
Per-job logs still land at logs/<model>_<mode>.log; failure reporting
is the same. Idempotent: skipping already-present checkpoints unchanged.

New scene 13 (after perf, the last in the deck) renders a tabbed
PDF viewer. Each tab is one .pdf in /opt/cis490/references/; the
active tab swaps the iframe's src to /refs/<encoded-filename>.
Backend
- /api/references — lists pdfs in REFS_DIR, returning
{"name": stem (newlines stripped), "path": "/refs/<urlencoded>"}.
- /refs static mount — serves the PDFs directly. check_dir=False
so the dashboard still boots if the directory is missing.
- REFS_DIR resolves relative to the install root so it works on
/opt/cis490 in production and any dev tree.
Frontend
- Stage view uses metric-stack-wide for the broader card; the
references scene also overrides .stage-view padding-right down
to a small gutter so the iframe takes most of the screen
horizontally — the prose card still sits on the right but the
PDF area is roughly 70% wide on standard viewports.
- Tabs are styled like .db-tab (palette-aware pills) and stop
propagation so they don't trigger the click-to-advance gesture.
- Iframe is lazy-loaded: src isn't set until the user actually
scrolls into the references scene OR clicks a tab, so the
browser doesn't fetch a big PDF the user may never view.
External-GPU path for the time-pressured first round, before the
Windows desktop joins the WG fleet. Lambda is treated as an "external
worker" whose output lands in the same /var/lib/cis490/models/ tree
the receiver-coordinated fleet uses, so cis490-jobs status reflects
Lambda runs identically to fleet runs.
Three scripts + one ingest tool:
scripts/build-lambda-bundle.sh
Tarball at /tmp/cis490-lambda/lambda-bundle-<short>.tar.zst with:
- the repo (sans .git, sans data/, sans artifacts*)
- data/processed/{validation_v1,features_window_v1}.parquet
- data/processed/feature_schema_v1.json
- data/processed/tensor_window_v1/ (npz shards)
- bootstrap.sh (entrypoint)
- training_manifest.toml (the canonical job list)
- BUNDLE_MANIFEST.json (commit hash + counts + build stamp)
Verifies all four data inputs exist BEFORE compressing 5+ GB.
scripts/run-on-lambda.sh ubuntu@<ip>
rsync bundle up → ssh + run bootstrap → rsync artifacts +
reports/eval back to artifacts-lambda/ + reports/lambda/.
Resumable rsync; sha256-verified.
scripts/lambda-bootstrap.sh (runs ON the Lambda instance)
Creates .venv with cu121 torch + xgboost + the [training] deps,
iterates the manifest's job list in priority order (highest first),
runs trainer/run.py (or run_ssl.py for transformer_ssl) per job,
skips jobs whose .ckpt.json already exists (idempotent on re-run),
writes per-job logs/<model>_<mode>.log, runs eval suite at the end,
stamps artifacts/RUN_SUMMARY.json with counts + failed-job list.
tools/ingest_lambda_artifacts.py
Bundles each (ckpt.json + sidecar + train.json) trio into a
.tar.zst, sha256, PUTs to the local trainer-receiver's
/v1/model/{job_id}, marks the job complete. Maps (model, mode) →
job_id by re-reading the canonical manifest. Handles the queue
state churn (requeue if completed, claim if pending, fail-back
on race losses).
End-to-end smoke verified on the A100 instance just provisioned:
- SSH from Pi via ed25519 keypair (cis490-trainer-pi)
- GPU: A100-SXM4-40GB, driver 580.105.08
- venv warmed: torch 2.5.1+cu121, xgboost 3.2.0
- 464 GB ephemeral disk available
Pi-side feature build (build_features.py + build_tensors.py against
all 72,952 accepted+degraded episodes) is in progress; bundle build
gates on its completion. Estimated wall-clock for the full Lambda
training run on A100: ~2.5 hours for 12 supervised + 2 SSL models +
eval suite.

Producers are event *sources* — the renderer is everything inside
training/dashboard/. Sibling layout makes the dependency direction
one-way (producers import from training.dashboard.events; dashboard
never reaches into producers).
training/dashboard/producers/ → training/producers/
Internal imports rewritten via sed; eval_/run.py and training/README.md
cross-references updated. CLI entry stays via `python -m training.producers.<sub>`
(replay / metrics / perf / profiles).
