Ever notice how AI’s weight updates seem to form fractal patterns when plotted over time? I've been tracing them, and there's something almost like a secret code hidden in the noise.

Fractal patterns in weight updates, huh? The noise is usually just the optimizer’s jitter, but who knows—wavelet transforms might reveal hidden rhythms if there’s a real pattern. Give it a shot and see if the “code” holds up under a closer look.
Mysterious Mysterious
Run the transforms on a few epochs and log the spectra; the peaks might line up like a hidden message in a song you’re not meant to hear. If the rhythm persists, maybe the optimizer is dancing to a tune we’re only just hearing.

Here’s a quick Python snippet that grabs a few weight‑update vectors, runs a Fast Fourier Transform on each, and logs the magnitude spectrum. It also gives you an optional wavelet view if you want to dig deeper into the “secret code.” ```python import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from scipy.signal import welch from pywt import wavedec # -------------------------------------------------- # 1. Load or simulate weight updates for a few epochs # -------------------------------------------------- # For demonstration we’ll create synthetic updates. # Replace this with your actual weight history: epochs = 5 updates_per_epoch = 100 weight_history = np.random.randn(epochs, updates_per_epoch, 512) # 512‑dim weights # -------------------------------------------------- # 2. FFT analysis per epoch # -------------------------------------------------- fft_spectra = [] for epoch in range(epochs): # Flatten all weight updates in this epoch flat_updates = weight_history[epoch].flatten() # Compute FFT fft_vals = np.fft.rfft(flat_updates) freqs = np.fft.rfftfreq(len(flat_updates)) mag = np.abs(fft_vals) fft_spectra.append((freqs, mag)) # Log (save) the spectrum np.save(f"fft_epoch_{epoch}.npy", mag) print(f"Epoch {epoch} FFT spectrum saved.") # -------------------------------------------------- # 3. Plot the spectra # -------------------------------------------------- plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6)) for epoch, (freqs, mag) in enumerate(fft_spectra): plt.plot(freqs, 20 * np.log10(mag + 1e-12), label=f"Epoch {epoch}") plt.xlabel("Frequency (Hz)") plt.ylabel("Magnitude (dB)") plt.title("FFT Spectrum of Weight Updates") plt.legend() plt.tight_layout() plt.show() # -------------------------------------------------- # 4. Optional: Wavelet decomposition for each epoch # -------------------------------------------------- wavelet_spectra = [] for epoch in range(epochs): flat_updates = weight_history[epoch].flatten() coeffs = wavedec(flat_updates, 'db4', level=5) # Keep detail coefficients (ignore the approximation at the end) detail_coeffs = coeffs[1:] # Concatenate for a single spectrum view wavelet_spectra.append(np.concatenate(detail_coeffs)) np.save(f"wavelet_epoch_{epoch}.npy", np.concatenate(detail_coeffs)) print(f"Epoch {epoch} wavelet detail coefficients saved.") # -------------------------------------------------- # 5. Quick wavelet plot # -------------------------------------------------- plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6)) for epoch, wavelet in enumerate(wavelet_spectra): plt.plot(wavelet, label=f"Epoch {epoch}") plt.xlabel("Coefficient Index") plt.ylabel("Amplitude") plt.title("Wavelet Detail Coefficients") plt.legend() plt.tight_layout() plt.show() ``` **What it does** 1. Simulates (or loads) a 3‑D array of weight updates: `epochs × updates_per_epoch × weight_dim`. 2. For each epoch, it flattens all updates, runs a real FFT, logs the magnitude spectrum to a `.npy` file, and prints a confirmation. 3. Plots all epochs on one graph so you can spot repeating peaks. 4. If you prefer a time‑frequency view, the script also performs a Daubechies‑4 wavelet decomposition, saves the detail coefficients, and plots them. Replace the synthetic `weight_history` with your real weight‑update tensors and you’re ready to hunt for those “hidden messages.” Good luck, and happy dancing with your optimizer!

Sounds like a solid start—just make sure you really check for consistency across epochs. If the peaks line up, you’ve got a candidate rhythm; if they drift, it might just be the optimizer’s heartbeat. Keep digging, and let me know if the “secret code” starts to whisper back.

I’m running the script now, flagging any peaks that persist across all epochs and checking their phase alignment. I’ll ping you once the spectra start looking like a coherent tune rather than random noise. Keep those sanity checks handy—those “whispers” might just be optimizer chatter if we’re not careful.

Sounds good—watch for those steady beats and phase ties. If the signal stays in sync, that’s the sweet spot where noise turns into music. Keep your eyes on the harmonics; sometimes the trick is just finding the right ear. Good luck, and ping me when you hear that first clear note.
