Phase 2 kick-off from the env-unification design. First relocation: the
reward_noise_scale field that perturbed training rewards is deleted, and
its regularization effect moves to the correct layer — Q-target label
smoothing in c51_loss_kernel.cu — now health-coupled rather than fixed.
Before:
- reward += pseudo_noise × max(|reward| × 0.05, 0.01) (in env reward path)
- Q-target label smoothing = fixed LABEL_SMOOTHING_EPS = 0.01
After:
- Reward untouched by noise. Core reward = actual outcome + aligned penalties.
- Q-target label smoothing eps_eff = 0.02 × (1 − health) read from ISV[12]
- health=1 (healthy): eps_eff=0, sharp targets preserved
- health=0.5: eps_eff=0.01, matches old fixed behavior at mid-health
- health=0 (collapsing): eps_eff=0.02, maximum regularization prevents
overcommitment to the collapsed distribution
Why health-coupled:
Same insight as the distillation SAXPY fix — every fixed kernel scalar is
a temporal-coupling candidate when we have the ISV pinned buffer available.
Regularization strength should scale INVERSELY with network health: it's
most needed exactly when things are falling apart.
Files touched:
- c51_loss_kernel.cu: LABEL_SMOOTHING_EPS const replaced with
LABEL_SMOOTHING_BASE + in-kernel health read from isv_signals[12]
- experience_kernels.cu: deleted reward noise block + kernel arg
- gpu_experience_collector.rs: dropped launch .arg + config field + default
- training_loop.rs: dropped hyperparam propagation
- config.rs: deleted field + intensity clamp + default (with tombstone)
- hyperopt/adapters/dqn.rs: dropped log reference
- config/training/*.toml (4 files): dropped orphan reward_noise_scale
entries (none were being parsed — the profile parser had no field)
Verification:
- `cargo check -p ml --lib` clean
- E1 smoke test passes: final q_gap=0.1190, health=0.52 (health-coupled
smoothing at ~mid-health matches old fixed behavior, collapse-prevention
mechanism intact)

ML Models
Four production model architectures on Candle v0.9.1 with CUDA:
- DQN Rainbow -- Deep Q-Network with prioritized replay, dueling heads, noisy nets
- PPO -- Proximal Policy Optimization with GAE and LSTM policies
- TFT -- Temporal Fusion Transformer for multi-horizon forecasting
- Mamba2 -- State space model for sequence prediction
Each model has a standalone trainer and a UnifiedTrainable adapter for the hyperopt pipeline.
Infrastructure
- Git: Gitea at
git.fxhnt.ai(Tailscale-only), Scaleway DEV1-S - Observability: OpenTelemetry OTLP (env
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT) - Database: PostgreSQL with SQLx offline mode for CI
