From 7356e3c7bb8d99909a4629dbf506d5bebdfa769f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: jgrusewski Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 23:49:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fix(rl): close 3 of 4 deferred items from Phase E.2 (greenfield) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Closes 3 of 4 deferred items from commit 2665669b5; item 1 (encoder backward) is deferred to a follow-up commit (see Notes below). Item 2 — Bellman target projection kernel: New `bellman_target_projection.cu` replaces the host-side stand-in `build_synthetic_bellman_target`. Reads γ from ISV[RL_GAMMA_INDEX=400] per pearl_controller_anchors_isv_driven. Standard C51 categorical projection with linear interpolation onto the discrete support [V_MIN, V_MAX]; no atomicAdd (per-source-atom serial shared writes bracketed by __syncthreads, Q_N_ATOMS=21 inner-loop syncs). Also adds `dqn_select_action_atoms` in the same TU — selects per-batch action-row atoms from the full target-net output. Both kernels exposed via DqnHead::project_bellman_target / DqnHead::select_action_atoms + DqnHead::forward_target (new — target-network forward using w_target_d / b_target_d). IntegratedTrainer::step_synthetic now consumes the kernel path: forward_target → select_action_atoms → project_bellman_target → backward_logits. The `build_synthetic_bellman_target` host function is DELETED. Item 3 — Per-head LR ISV controller: New `rl_lr_controller.cu` emits per-head learning rates to ISV slots [412..417]: RL_LR_BCE_INDEX, RL_LR_Q_INDEX, RL_LR_PI_INDEX, RL_LR_V_INDEX, RL_LR_AUX_INDEX (RL_SLOTS_END bumped 412 → 417). Bootstrap 1e-3 per pearl_first_observation_bootstrap; Wiener-α blend with floor 0.4 per pearl_wiener_alpha_floor_for_nonstationary. IntegratedTrainer launches the controller at the top of step_synthetic AFTER the encoder forward; it then DtoH-mirrors ISV and mutates each per-head AdamW.lr field before the Adam steps. The PHASE_E2_DEFAULT_LR constant is DELETED. The `lr` parameter on step_synthetic is gone (greenfield — no caller override). The controller currently emits the constant LR_BOOTSTRAP target; the signal-modulated variant (gradient-norm EMA-driven LR adaptation) is reserved for Phase E.3+ — kernel header documents the upgrade path and the 5 diagnostic-signal args are already plumbed. Item 4 — PPO V-loss canonicalization: Deletes `returns_/v_pred/loss_v` from ppo_clipped_surrogate_fwd (kernel + ppo.rs::surrogate_forward signature). V gradient now flows ONLY through the dedicated `v_head_fwd_bwd` kernels per feedback_single_source_of_truth_no_duplicates. PPO surrogate now handles policy loss + entropy bonus only. The IntegratedTrainer's surrogate_forward call site no longer passes returns/v_pred/loss_v. ISV slot table (rl/isv_slots.rs): 408..411 loss-balance λ (BCE/Q/π/V) ← existing 412 RL_LR_BCE_INDEX ← new 413 RL_LR_Q_INDEX ← new 414 RL_LR_PI_INDEX ← new 415 RL_LR_V_INDEX ← new 416 RL_LR_AUX_INDEX ← new 417 RL_SLOTS_END ← was 412 Notes — item 1 (PerceptionTrainer::backward_encoder_with_grad_h_t) deferred: The IntegratedTrainer.step_synthetic path now COMBINES the Q/π/V grad_h_t contributions into a dedicated `grad_h_t_combined_d` slot via the existing `grad_h_accumulate_scaled` kernel (loss-balance λ weighted), which is the prerequisite plumbing for the encoder backward entry point. The PerceptionTrainer-side method that consumes this slot — CfC bwd + Mamba2 bwd + encoder Adam step on caller- provided grad_h_t — is a multi-thousand-line refactor of perception.rs::dispatch_train_step (~7,400 lines) and is being sequenced as a standalone follow-up commit to keep the kernel signature changes here (items 2/3/4) reviewable in isolation. All three landed items are greenfield replacements per project policy (feedback_no_legacy_aliases, feedback_no_partial_refactor): no deprecated fields, no const-or-ISV fallback shims, no parameter backward-compat. ISV is the single source of truth for all adaptive parameters per pearl_controller_anchors_isv_driven. Validation: cargo check -p ml-alpha --lib ✓ cargo check -p ml-alpha --tests --examples ✓ cargo check --workspace --lib ✓ cargo test -p ml-alpha --lib (63 passed, 6 ignored) ✓ cargo build -p ml-alpha --features cuda (new cubins built) ✓ Companion to E.2 (commit 2665669b5). Encoder backward + Phase E.3 LobSim integration follow in subsequent commits.
