Behaviour Surprisal Analysis

Status: Production Ready (v3.0 - Cat# Integration) Trit: 0 (ERGODIC - measurement/observation) Principle: S(x) = -log₂(P(x|attention_mode)) Frame: Tri-channel prediction evaluation with AGM belief revision + Cat# bicomodule structure

Overview

Behaviour Surprisal Analysis calculates information-theoretic surprise between predictions and observed outcomes using three complementary attention channels mapped to Cat# = Comod(P) structure:

Channel	Trit	Home	Poly Op	Kan Role	Description
Direct (α)	−1	Span	× (product)	Ran_K	Exact artifact matching
Diffuse (β)	0	Prof	⊗ (parallel)	Adj	Thematic/structural matching
Meta (γ)	+1	Presheaves	◁ (substitution)	Lan_K	Capability/infrastructure tracking

Total Surprisal = α·S_direct + β·S_diffuse + γ·S_meta
where α + β + γ = 1 and typically α=0.3, β=0.5, γ=0.2

Cat# Integration (v3.0)

Galois Adjunction α ⊣ γ

The Direct and Meta channels form a Galois adjunction through the Diffuse bridge:

         α (abstract)
  Direct ─────────────→ Diffuse
    ↑                      │
    │        CatSharp      │ γ (concretize)
    │         Scale        │
    └──────────────────────┘
           Meta

  GF(3): (−1) + (0) + (+1) = 0 ✓

α (abstraction): Direct predictions → Diffuse patterns
γ (concretization): Diffuse patterns → Direct predictions
Unit η: id → γ∘α verifies coherence

Three Homes (Spivak ACT 2023)

Each channel lives in a specific Cat# home:

┌────────────┬─────────────┬──────────┬───────────────┬────────────┐
│  Channel   │  Poly Op    │ Kan Role │   Structure   │   Home     │
├────────────┼─────────────┼──────────┼───────────────┼────────────┤
│  Direct    │  × (prod)   │  Ran_K   │ cofree t_p    │   Span     │
│  Diffuse   │  ⊗ (para)   │  Adj     │ bicomodule    │   Prof     │
│  Meta      │  ◁ (subst)  │  Lan_K   │ free m_p      │ Presheaves │
└────────────┴─────────────┴──────────┴───────────────┴────────────┘

Bicomodule Coherence

Predictions and observations form bicomodule pairs. Coherence is verified by:

Galois unit check: η: id → γ∘α preserves trits
Bicomodule compatibility: pred_trit ↔ obs_trit compatible homes

CatSharp Scale Sonification

Surprisal values map to pitch classes via the CatSharp scale:

Trit	Pitch Classes	Chord Type	Hz Range
+1 (PLUS)	{0, 4, 8}	Augmented triad	C-E-G#
0 (ERGODIC)	{3, 6, 9}	Diminished 7th	D#-F#-A-C
−1 (MINUS)	{1,2,5,7,10,11}	Fifths cycle	C#,D,F,G,A#,B

;; Surprisal → Pitch class → Frequency
(defn surprisal->pitch-class [surp]
  (mod (Math/round (* (min surp 10.0) 1.2)) 12))

(defn pitch-class->freq [pc]
  (* 261.63 (Math/pow 2 (/ pc 12.0))))  ;; C4 = 261.63 Hz

Enable with --sonify flag to hear the surprisal as tones via sox.

AGM Belief Revision (Levi Identity)

Based on Baker 2023:

K * φ = (K − ¬φ) + φ   (Levi Identity)

Contraction (K − ¬φ): Remove predictions contradicted by observations
Expansion (+ φ): Add new beliefs from observed data
Revision (K * φ): Combined operation via Levi identity

Spohn κ-Ranking

Predictions ranked by entrenchment:

(defn kappa-rank [belief]
  (- (Math/log (/ 1 (max 0.01 (:confidence belief))))))

Lower κ = more entrenched = harder to revise.

Philosophical Foundation

The tri-channel Cat# model reflects:

Cat# Three Homes: Span (comodules), Prof (bimodules), Presheaves (right modules)
Kan Extensions: Ran_K (limit/consume), Lan_K (colimit/generate), Adj (bridge)
Galois Adjunction: α ⊣ γ for abstraction/concretization
AGM Epistemology: Contraction, Expansion, Revision via Levi identity
CatSharp Scale: Mazzola's categorical music theory for sonification

Key Insight: GF(3) = Naturality

GF(3) conservation IS the naturality condition of Cat# equipment:

For a triad (s₋₁, s₀, s₊₁):
  Ran_K(s₋₁) →[bicomodule]→ s₀ →[bicomodule]→ Lan_K(s₊₁)
  
  The commuting square:
    G(f) ∘ η_A = η_B ∘ F(f)
    
  Becomes the GF(3) equation:
    (−1) + (0) + (+1) ≡ 0 (mod 3)
