Register obstruction. What machine translation does to honorific register in Bengali and Hindi (আপনি / তুমি / তুই, आप / तुम / तू), and why.1
Research
Each project starts with a question and a bar it has to clear, written down before the experiment. The results below include the ones that missed.
Current
World models for ARC-AGI-3. A documented lineage of bets on learning a game's rules from play: TCCA, iwm, a category-theory world model, Virgil, and now Mechanic Composition Worlds, a paper in prep.2
Mechanic Composition Worlds. Why does an LLM-written world model get an untried action wrong? Paper in prep.3
Blackstar. The ARC Prize 2026 entry, successor to TCCA, iwm, categorical-cat and Virgil. Day 0 done: plan, lineage audit, frozen references. Kaggle best so far 0.23. No new solver yet.
A brain and AI project. With a friend in medicine. It stays quiet until there is something to show.
Results
ButterflyGate. An O(n log n) structured token mixer that replaces self-attention in a pretrained model's early layers.4
ResonatorLM, audited. A from-scratch replication of arXiv:2607.05583. It turns out to be a diagonal complex state-space model, and Eq. 4 has a phase-sign error.5
Earlier
- NeuroSymbolic Chain of Thought, mid 2025. Checks each reasoning step with symbolic logic as it is written and regenerates only the step that fails, so one early error can't run through the whole chain. Repo and docs.
- Synthesis of Thought, early 2025. A controller sets the number of agents by task complexity, gives each a different reasoning setup, and merges the best parts with attribution. Report.
- Debate of Thought, Oct to Nov 2024. Agents critique and revise each other's solutions over n rounds.
- A reasoning architecture on HRM and RWKV backbones, 2025. Paper started.
- Photonic Shor's algorithm, 2024. A 4-qubit design on paper, checked by a physics professor.
- An MCMC sampler, a fee-less AI-miner blockchain, and federated learning with proof-of-work, 2024. Three papers.
- BDH, a research project, March 2026. Shut down. See History.
