From 3f8e1fb55343d36477c61fadae973b0e61f85f0b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: jgrusewski Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 01:07:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] refactor(per-horizon): rewrite smoothness controller test for N_HORIZONS=3 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Re-derive 3-element fixtures for [10, 100, 1000] preserving geometric decay invariant. Rename excess_at_h6000_lifts_lambda_proportionally to excess_at_h1000_lifts_lambda_proportionally. Critical correction during execution: the kernel uses SQRT-anchored TARGET_K_RATIO (since commit b5bed9f80 "sqrt K-ratio") not linear ratio. The lifted-fixture computation mirrors the kernel's sqrt constant (TARGET_K_RATIO_H2 = sqrt(10/1000) ≈ 0.3162) so the test fires the lambda = 10 × base invariant under the actual kernel math. Side-discovery (flagged for Task 5 scope expansion): - cuda/smoothness_lambda_controller.cu:30 still has SLC_N_HORIZONS = 5 - TARGET_K_RATIO at lines 45-51 uses old-horizon formula {30/30, 30/100, 30/300, 30/1000, 30/6000}. With N_HORIZONS=3 the kernel reads only slots [0..3] = {1.0, 0.5477, 0.3162} — those correspond to old 30/30, 30/100, 30/300 ratios. h1000's smoothness target is currently anchored to OLD h300 ratio (functional bug requiring kernel update). cargo test --test smoothness_lambda_controller_invariants: 4 passed.
