Central principle: store a physical scene observation together with the conditions under which it remains valid. Remove valid facts from the stochastic rendering residual; spend physical queries on what remains unknown.
Abstract
A persistent neural world state should retain reusable scene knowledge across views and tasks. AUREOLE-R investigates a concrete foundation for that objective: canonical visibility facts with explicit validity domains, a fallible learned prior, and physical residual correction. Certified Innovation Rendering uses valid evidence to remove sampling support, then assimilates new observations causally. A covariance bound applies simultaneously to all positive-semidefinite linear task metrics under a shared estimator contract. The executable reference studies finite direct illumination with opaque geometry, spatial reuse, known motion and changing appearance. Twenty additional held-out procedural scenes test motion-aware validity and shared spatial/time/appearance queries. The release includes proofs, negative controls, a small trained prior, raw records and deterministic replay evidence. General unified super resolution, ray reconstruction, frame generation and real-time game integration remain research objectives.
Results, with their actual scope
| Experiment | Recorded result | Comparison and limitation |
|---|---|---|
| E10: smooth motion, 12 scenes | 98.40% lower expected MSE; 95% scene-bootstrap interval 98.12–98.75% | Versus cache reset on every geometry change; same maximum physical-query budget, unequal time and memory |
| E10: smooth motion | 1.203 vs 2.000 queries per receiver | Three opaque spheres, 36 finite lights; all geometry changes are supplied |
| E11: 8 additional scenes, 5 prescribed times, 3 appearance readouts | 76.85% fewer physical queries, including initialization | 682,759 vs 2,949,120 queries; baseline already shares visibility between the three readouts |
| E11: full reference audit | 0 final linear-RGB difference, 0 accepted false certificates | Tested float64 cases; no claim of a formally verified floating-point kernel |
| E10: large jump | 0.15% higher MSE versus reset; interval includes zero difference | No jump-phase superiority established |
| E10: CPU cost | 1.88 ms vs 1.18 ms per 320-receiver batch | Sequential certificate method vs v2 guard; excludes common preparation; no end-to-end speedup established |

The new protocols execute 8,885,384 online physical segment queries. The archive retains v1/v2 evidence and failures. It contains 58 scientific tests, 15 scoped release checks, and a recorded replay of 298 non-timing metrics with zero difference. Publication-workflow tests are reported separately in publication validation.
The mathematical mechanism
For a finite vector-valued sum, write the rendering estimate as an analytically integrated control plus sampled residuals. Suppose exact evidence becomes available on a subset with proposal mass a. Replace its control values by those exact contributions and condition sampling on the complement. Under the comparison in Proposition C1:
Thus every fixed positive-semidefinite quadratic task metric improves under the stated estimator assumptions. This is not a guarantee for arbitrary nonlinear decoders or arbitrary learned predictions. Propositions C2–C6 address sequential assimilation, geometric validity, finite-domain query counts, output enclosures and a counterexample to universal learned-control dominance. Read the complete proofs.
The scientific contribution candidate is the common interface between world facts, validity dependencies and corrected output estimators. Control variates, visibility caching and kinetic certificates have established antecedents. Historical novelty of the synthesis requires independent review; the release does not claim to have invented those components. Prior-art audit · Theorem index
What you can use now
- A NumPy CPU implementation of persistent visibility memory, conservative validity tests and sequential residual elimination: API contract.
- A 3,217-parameter trained visibility prior, retained unchanged from v2: weights, model card, training record.
- A small finite-completion demo, reproducible motion and query-family experiments, raw evidence, figures and tests.
- A complete standalone research manuscript covering the broader unified-rendering architecture, its assumptions, proposed training and falsification criteria.
The reference uses known materials and finite opaque direct illumination. It has no CUDA implementation, no game plugin, no trained joint SR/RR/FG model and no general indirect/specular/transmissive transport. Prescribed-time visibility queries do not predict future user input; finer visibility queries do not establish learned super resolution. The original scope and readiness estimates remain in STATUS.json.
Run the reference
Python 3.10+ is required. The recorded scientific environment used Python 3.12.14 and NumPy 2.3.5. No GPU is required. From the extracted project folder:
python -m venv .venv
# Activate .venv for your shell, then:
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python scripts/demo_innovation.py
python scripts/validate_release.py
On Windows, RUN_INNOVATION.bat runs the CPU demo and REPRODUCE.bat runs the two v3 experiments. Consult REPRODUCIBILITY.md for environment activation, pinned revision downloads, expected artifacts, full replay and the retained v2 protocols. Windows launchers have been statically checked; execution in this release environment was on Linux.
