dtourolle	5a8c3e4c40	Run each model on the Hexagon in the form measured to hold it ... The engine knew f32 and int8, and gave the Hexagon int8 for every role it served. Measured on the tablet itself (inference.md §1.5), int8 lost 5% of the detector's faces at 40-80 px, moved the landmarks 1.5 px, emptied the segmenter's scores and cost the denoiser 5-9 dB; fp16 the HTP refuses outright. `Form` gains A16W8 and A16W16, and `Rung::form` now names one per role: detectors and landmarks A16W8, the segmenter, scene model, border filler and denoiser A16W16, XFeat int8. The embedder and the eye classifiers stay on the CPU. Each loader resolves its `<stem>.<form>.onnx` sibling; the segmenter and XFeat, compiled into the binary, embed their quantised forms on Android only and pick through `choose_embedded`. The probe, the compile step and the cache fingerprint follow the form instead of assuming int8. Detectors on the new form write `scrfd_*_a16+w600k_mbf`, and `model_ids` answers for all three spellings. On the tablet (ORT 1.29 + QNN 2.42), each shipped file against f32 on the same inputs, and against the CPU's f32 time: SCRFD 500m/2.5g/10g A16W8 100% of faces in every band 4.2/5.1/9.0 ms vs 17/56/198 landmarks A16W8 0.25 px in the 192 crop 0.5 ms vs 2.8 YOLO26n-seg A16W16 98.2% found, mask IoU 0.994 12.9 ms vs 90 scene model A16W16 98.9% of cells agree 15 ms vs 151 MI-GAN A16W16 41 dB from f32 in the fill 87 ms vs 488 XFeat int8 pano alignment 0.45 px (f32's own spread 0.41) 6.5 ms vs 58 denoiser A16W16 0.00 dB at every ISO 95 ms vs 1510 a tile Face numbers are over public COCO val2017 photographs, not a library. The APK carries the siblings (BUNDLED 15 -> 19; the old int8 detectors removed), about 43 MB more. The Windows installer and its CI count skip them; the Arch and Flatpak packages list their files and never had them. The ladder example takes a role per model, which is how the per-role forms above were seen landing on the NPU from the real probe.	2026-10-04 03:45:46 -04:00
dtourolle	84fade99ec	Put the developer docs under docs/dev and index the folder for users first ... docs/ had 26 developer documents flat beside the manual, and the two audiences are very differently sized: most readers want the manual and the gesture reference, a few want the register, the designs and the measurements. The manual and gestures.md stay at the top; everything for someone changing the code moves to docs/dev/, and the two documents that name their own successors — the v0.1 milestone and the UI-refinement plan — go to docs/dev/archive/ rather than being deleted, since both are still cited. docs/README.md is the index, users first. Every reference follows: code comments, Cargo manifests, the workflows, the pre-commit hook, the bench and traceability tools (which locate the repo root by docs/dev/requirements.md now), packaging, the Docker READMEs, CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and the README. The matrix links one level deeper and is regenerated. Links out of the moved documents into the tree gain a level; a link checker over every Markdown file finds none broken.	2026-09-20 21:16:03 +02:00
dtourolle	05508741af	Start the inference engine from both apps and show its choice in Settings ... The desktop names where a package may have put libonnxruntime — an override variable, beside the executable, the package's own library directory, the Flatpak prefix, the system library directory — and Android points at the APK's native library directory, which is also what Qualcomm's DSP loader must be told for the Hexagon skel. Android starts the engine at the end of the model unpack rather than at launch, because the probe fingerprints the model files and a first launch has none until then. The About panel gains an Inference row beside Graphics, re-read every two seconds while the probe runs and engines land, and faces.model_id carries the detector's form: an int8 detector finds a different set of faces and is a different population (docs/inference.md §7). A low-memory signal drops every idle session with the GPU caches. The APK assembly bundles ONNX Runtime and the Qualcomm HTP libraries from Maven, fetched by tools/fetch-android-runtime.sh with their published checksums; RUNTIME_DIR=none builds the tract-only APK, which is a slower app and not a broken one. The desktop packages carry no runtime yet. Two probe fixes from the first desktop run: the floor must not be built with CPU fallback disabled, and a versioned libonnxruntime.so is a runtime too. On the reference desktop the probe now loads ONNX Runtime 1.30, measures 30 ms on the CPU provider, and selects TensorRT at 1.5 ms.	2026-09-19 16:02:37 +02:00
dtourolle	d15c41e699	Add dr-inference-engine and route every model session through it ... One crate names the runtime, the providers and the devices; dr-face and dr-segment ask it for a session by role. It hands ort an API table once per process — from a libonnxruntime it dlopens when the app names a directory holding one, otherwise from tract — so the Rust build stays free of C on every target and a package can install the runtime as a file (docs/inference.md §3). Sessions live in a registry behind a Model handle that holds the bytes, not the session: every use refreshes a timestamp and a reaper unloads whatever sat idle past the decay. A scan that runs the detector on each image never lets it go idle; a click in the develop view lets the segmenter go after thirty seconds; a handle used after that reloads, and reloads on a higher rung if a compiled engine has landed meanwhile. The probe walks the platform's ladder by building strict sessions and timing them against the CPU provider, caches the choice against a fingerprint of the runtime, driver, hardware and models, and compiles engines for the selected rung in the background, smallest model first. Nothing in this commit turns the native path on: the apps still run on tract until they call init with a runtime directory.	2026-09-19 16:02:37 +02:00
dtourolleandClaude Opus 5	4f4abd335f	Cut a scene category back to the pixels that agree with it ... A flag in the sky came out weighted as sky, and no feather setting fixed it. The scene model's logits are `[1, 150, 80, 80]`, so one cell is eight input pixels; at the 1600px proxy the letterbox scale is 0.4 and **one cell is 20 proxy pixels**, which `rasterise`'s bilinear then spreads across one more either side. A flag is a handful of cells whose softmax is dominated by the sky around it. The information was never in the grid, so nothing downstream of the grid can recover it. Tiling is the answer for an instance and is not available here: a category has no bounding box to tile over — sky is wherever the sky is. But the photograph is at full proxy resolution even though the weights are not, and it knows exactly where the flag is. So the model says *what*, and the pixels say *which of them*, which is the division of labour arm C already draws between the instance model and the watershed. ## Seeds, and why the erosion radius is not a guess Threshold the weights high, take `signed_distance`, and keep what is more than 1.5 cells inside. One cell *is* the model's resolution and the bilinear spreads it across one more, so the band either side of the boundary is smear rather than evidence. Deriving the radius from `Scene::cell_pixels` rather than picking a pixel count means it stays right if the proxy edge or the export changes. The mirror of that set is a confident *exterior*, free from the same field. ## Dropping small modes is the step that makes it work Four k-means modes per side, not one Gaussian: sky is blue at the zenith, white where the cloud is and pale at the horizon, and one blob over all three rejects two of them. Then modes holding under 3% of a side are discarded, and without that step the whole thing fails on the case it was built for. A small flag deep in the sky has both a high weight and a large distance from the boundary, so it lands in the interior sample and teaches the model its own colour. It cannot be excluded geometrically. It can be excluded by share. Luminance is weighted at a quarter against chrominance for the same reason the watershed's gradient is. Sky's variance is dominated by luminance, so at equal weight the distribution is a long bright streak that a mid-grey flag sits comfortably inside. A flag is separated by chrominance; a cloud is separated by luminance alone. Not zero, or a dark bird against a bright sky survives. ## Two tests, because either alone is wrong Absolute — is this colour plausible under the category, as a chi-square on the Mahalanobis distance. Comparative — is it likelier inside than outside. A pixel must pass both. The absolute test is what catches the flag, whose colour is far from *both* sides and which the comparative test alone would leave at even odds. The comparative test is what stops the absolute one needing a constant tuned per category. ## What this cannot do, written down rather than left to be discovered An intruder large enough to hold its own mode is kept. By share, a flag over a fifth of the sky and a cloud bank over a fifth of the sky are the same object, and colour does not separate them either — a white cloud is as far from blue sky in chrominance as many intruders are. So `min_cluster` is not a threshold with a correct value waiting to be found; it is the trade-off itself, set where a photographic intruder falls. Both ends are pinned by tests — `a_flag_in_the_sky_is_removed` and `an_intruder_larger_than_min_cluster_survives` — so that moving the number reads as moving the trade-off rather than as fixing a bug. The case left open is a large unrecognised object in a clean category, which wants the boundary snapped to watershed basins and is a different mechanism. ## Safe to apply without a control It is subtractive: the output is the input times a factor in `0..=1`. The worst failure available to it is losing part of a real sky, never gaining a region, so a blue car below the horizon that was never in the mask cannot be pulled into it. And a factor in `0..=1` cannot raise a sum, so `scene.rs`'s partition still holds when every category is refined independently — the weight taken off the flag lands in the unlisted remainder, which is where a flag belongs, ADE20K having no class for one. Every path without the evidence to judge returns the weights untouched and says which path it took. A refinement that silently did nothing is indistinguishable from the feature being off, and an empty seed set fitted to a distribution would reject every pixel. The signature is deliberately unchanged: categories are addressed by name, not by index, so a sharper mask cannot create the stale-index hazard the signature exists to guard against. The example writes `<prefix>-<category>-refined.ppm` beside the coarse one, never instead of it — whether this is an improvement is a comparative judgement and one image cannot answer it. Verified: fmt clean, clippy -D warnings clean, 57 dr-segment tests. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-30 18:30:16 +02:00
dtourolleandClaude Opus 5	8df6000e4b	Decode the scene model into per-category weights ... The weights landed last commit with nothing to read them. This is the decoder, and the shape of it follows from one property worth stating before the code: the categories must partition the image. ## Why a partition, and not a mask per category The scene tab applies one grade to every pixel of a category — lift the sky, desaturate foliage — and both grades meet at the horizon. If each category carried an independent mask, feathering them outward would make the boundary band belong to both, so both grades would land there and every horizon would acquire a visible seam. Feathering has to *blend* there, not accumulate. So `marginalise` takes one softmax over all 150 channels and sums within each category. Grouping cannot change a total of one, so the listed categories plus the unlisted remainder sum to one at every pixel, by construction rather than by normalising afterwards. `parse_categories` refuses a descriptor that claims a class twice, because that is the one input that would quietly make the property untrue. ## The descriptor is data, and hand-written `models/scene/categories.txt` groups ADE20K's 150 classes into the eight a photographer would recognise. It is a file rather than a table in Rust for the reason `models/LICENCE.md` predicted — a vocabulary is model metadata — and it is line-oriented with comments rather than JSON like the `.classes.json` beside it, because that file is generated and this one is argued. Why `swimming pool` is water and not architecture belongs next to the line that says so. Classes are named, not indexed. An index is silently wrong after a re-export; a name is loudly wrong, and the loader refuses one the model does not have. ## Resolution, kept visible `Scene` holds the native 80×80 logit grid and resamples on demand rather than upsampling once at load. The coarseness is real — it is what the graph produces — and a type that hides it behind an early resize invites callers to expect detail that was never there. `rasterise` is where the letterbox inverse lives, once. `Letterbox` and `Window` become `pub(crate)` and `to_proto` generalises to `to_grid`, because both dense outputs this crate reads are an even fraction of the same letterboxed square and differ only in the divisor. ## Verified by looking, which is the only way this gets verified `examples/scene.rs` writes the photograph dimmed outside each category. A transposed axis or an off-by-one in the inverse produces perfectly plausible weights over slightly the wrong pixels, and no unit test catches that. On an indoor frame the person mask lands on the person, including the outstretched arm, and sky reads ~5% against a bright ceiling. It doubles as the benchmark, because every timing quoted while this model was chosen came off a laptop compiling other things and none of them belong in a document.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5	e26f71d15d	Gather every model under one tree at the repository root ... The weights were in two places: face detection and recognition in `models/face/`, segmentation in `core/dr-segment/models/`. Nothing was wrong with either path, but between them there was nowhere to look to answer "how much model does this application carry", and that number is about to start growing. So the crate-local copy moves up beside the other. `models/` now holds `face/` and `segment/`, and a `du -sh` of one directory is the whole answer. No content changes: the .onnx and its vocabulary are byte-identical, and `LICENCE.md` moves up a level to cover the tree rather than one crate. The LFS pattern in `.gitattributes` is `*.onnx` and already matched both locations, so only its comment needed the new path. `include_bytes!` is relative to the source file and `build.rs` runs with the crate root as its working directory, which is why the two paths climb a different number of levels.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5	56978fdf35	Clear the clippy warnings that were failing CI before this branch ... Nothing here is film simulation. These are lints that fail master today, under the -D warnings CI runs with, mostly from a toolchain that learned new ones rather than from anybody's code -- `is_multiple_of` and the derivable `Default` did not exist as lints when this was written. They are fixed rather than allowed, and by hand rather than by trusting `cargo clippy --fix` wholesale: its automatic pass split a derive in two and left a stray blank line, which is the sort of thing that is correct and still wrong to commit. The four that needed a decision rather than a rewrite: - The distance transform's inner loop writes through its iterator now. `q` stays, because it is the position the parabola is evaluated at as well as the index it is written to -- the lint is about the write. - `to_source` and `to_proto` take `self` by value. Their receiver is `Copy`, so this is the same machine code and the honest signature. - The export path's return type is five levels deep and now has a name, plus a line saying why the `Option` wraps the `Result`: `None` is cancellation, which is not a failure and has no error to report. - A test fills a range instead of looping over one.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5	7a5e1adf51	Merge what two tiles saw of one subject, instead of picking a side ... "Look closer" tiles the frame so a small subject reaches a fixed 640x640 model at its own size. A tile sees only the part of an object inside it, so an object on a seam produces two *partial* masks — neither of them the object. This kept the higher-scoring one and discarded the other, which quietly threw away what tiling had just been paid 2.8 seconds for: a bird with its tail cut off at a tile edge, described by whichever tile happened to hold more of the bird. Both halves existed; one survived. They are unioned now, and the overlap is what makes that sound. At 25% every pixel is seen by at least one tile at full resolution and pixels near a seam by two, so the pointwise maximum is the better estimate everywhere rather than a compromise: where one tile saw a pixel its opinion is the only one there is, and where both did, the higher value came from the tile with more context around it. A maximum of soft coverage also stays soft, which is what `prior.rs` weights merges by and what a mask layer's edge treatment needs. Each quantity gets the operation that suits it: maximum for coverage, union for the box, and the higher score rather than a blend — the score is shown to a photographer and means "how sure the model is this is a bird", so averaging in a tile that saw a wingtip would make a confident detection look doubtful for straddling a seam. The test fails against the old rule with "pixel 4 was seen by a tile and must survive the merge", which is the whole defect in one line: not a crash, not a duplicate, just a plausible mask missing half its subject.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5	c75849040c	Format the tree the way the gate asks for it ... `cargo fmt --check` is a required step and had drifted across 45 files. Most of it arrived this week: several operations were written in parallel worktrees and merged by hand, and a hand-merge resolves conflicts without ever running the formatter over the result. No behaviour changes — this is `cargo fmt --all` and nothing else, kept as its own commit so the next reader can skip it wholesale rather than search it for one that matters.

dtourolle	0da8271836	Let the model say what a thing is and the watershed say where it ends ... Local masking needs to know where an image's regions are. The watershed spike (S15 arm A) found the boundaries but had no idea what any of them enclosed; its coarse levels were geometric accidents. This adds the other half and the thing that joins them. `core/dr-segment` is where region reasoning now lives — the hierarchy moves out of `dr-gpu`, which keeps only the pixel passes that are genuinely shaders. The new crate is device-free and, without its default features, model-free too: 20 of its tests need neither an adapter nor 11 MB of weights. Arm B runs YOLO26n-seg through `ort`. D13 framed inference as a choice between `ort`'s C++ runtime and the pure-Rust dependency policy; that was a false choice. `ort`'s `alternative-backend` feature unlinks the C entirely and `ort-tract` supplies the API from tract, which is pure Rust. Measured before committing to it: zero unsupported operators, 420 ms for 640x640, and correct masks on bus.jpg. No NDK problem to solve, so D13's largest tolerated exception is not needed. Arm C is `prior.rs`, and it ships because the two arms fail in opposite directions. Instance membership re-weights the merge saddles, so region pairs the model believes share an object merge early and pairs straddling its edge merge late. No boundary moves — only the order in which they dissolve — which is how the result stays pixel-accurate at every level while its coarse levels become named things. Two things the spec assumed that turned out to be false, both recorded in models/LICENCE.md: there is no usable ADE20K-trained YOLO, so the shipped vocabulary is COCO's 80 subjects and *stuff* like sky and foliage must come from arm A; and tract cannot parse a dynamic-shape export, so the graph's input is fixed and tiling is the only route to more semantic resolution. Weights are AGPL-3.0, which GPLv3 §13 permits and which makes the combined work effectively AGPL. Deliberate, not accidental. They live in Git LFS, and a build script fails with an instruction rather than embedding a pointer file when the clone lacks them.	2026-08-22 08:39:16 +02:00
