New ruvector module: anonymized ProfileStore (one-way SHA-256 hashed tags, safe-session scores only), deterministic exact kNN, cohort warm-start (a new person's optimizer seeded from the k nearest responders as down-weighted GP pseudo-observations), physiological drift detection (Welford centroid with stimulus-input fields masked out of the distance), and deterministic k-means response clustering. Honesty guarantees, asserted in tests: cohort priors carry >=25x the real-observation noise, are excluded from the EI incumbent, the audit log, and the clinician report — borrowed expectations never masquerade as this person's measured response. The GP gains per-observation noise; the real path is arithmetically unchanged (pinned witness 13cb164c... preserved). Governor wiring: seed_from_cohort, export_anonymized_profile, per-session drift_status. Integration tests: cohort warm-start beats the cold 40 Hz prior for a detuned subject; collapsed physiology flags Drifted. Crate: 75 tests + 1 doctest. Workspace gate: 2,876 passed, 0 failed. Benches: kNN/500 profiles ~15us, warm-start ~16us; no regression on existing paths (recommend ~15us, calibration sweep ~111us). https://claude.ai/code/session_01MjBucx95K4BuUxZi8NWwRH
ruview-gamma — Adaptive Gamma Entrainment (ADR-250)
Governed, deterministic, safety-constrained personalization of 40 Hz-prior multisensory (light + sound) stimulation. Treats 40 Hz as the evidence-based starting prior, then learns each person's safe entrainment response curve using passive RuView sensing, optional EEG, a constrained optimizer, and auditable RuFlo workflows.
Not medical advice / not a medical device. This crate is a research and engineering platform. The only claim it makes is "personalized entrainment optimization" (
ruview_gamma::PRODUCT_CLAIM) — never Alzheimer's treatment, amyloid clearance, or any clinical outcome (ADR-250 §19). It performs no hardware actuation: real stimulus delivery, RF sensing, and EEG arrive through external adapters behind feature flags after this governed software core ships (ADR-250 §21, Milestones 2–4).
Why it exists
The field mostly treats 40 Hz as a fixed protocol. But individual brains differ by baseline gamma, arousal, sleep, sensory acuity, medication, age, and comfort (the 2025 PLOS One 36–44 Hz re-evaluation). Fixed 40 Hz (1) assumes one frequency fits all, (2) never verifies entrainment, (3) ignores physiological state, and (4) cannot safely optimize over time. This crate closes that loop.
The safety invariant
No recommendation, calibration step, bandit arm, or closed-loop nudge can ever
emit a StimulusParameters outside the SafetyEnvelope. Every emitting path
clamps to the envelope and is asserted against SafetyEnvelope::contains in
tests. The optimizer never widens the envelope — only an operator constructs a
wider one deliberately (ADR-250 §12). Non-finite (NaN/∞) inputs clamp toward the
conservative floor, never the cap.

Quick start
use ruview_gamma::{
ruflo::{Consent, RufloGovernor},
response::RuViewState,
simulator::{LatentPerson, ResponseSimulator},
stimulus::{SafetyEnvelope, StimulusParameters},
};
let envelope = SafetyEnvelope::conservative();
let mut gov = RufloGovernor::enroll("subject-001", envelope, &[], Consent::Granted)
.expect("cleared to participate");
// Milestone 1: drive the governed loop with the deterministic simulator.
let sim = ResponseSimulator::new(42);
let latent = LatentPerson::from_id("subject-001");
let state = RuViewState::calm_baseline();
gov.run_calibration(&sim, &latent, &state, 5.0, 0).unwrap();
let rec = gov.recommend(&StimulusParameters::prior());
assert!(envelope.contains(&rec.stimulus)); // always inside the envelope
Test / validate / benchmark
cargo test -p ruview-gamma --no-default-features # 64 unit/integration + 1 doctest
cargo bench -p ruview-gamma --no-default-features # criterion micro-benchmarks
Determinism is proven, not assumed: proof::Proof::reference_witness() runs a
fixed reference participant through the full governed pipeline and pins the
bundle SHA-256 (Proof::EXPECTED_WITNESS); the test fails on any silent drift in
the optimizer, simulator, response update, or session hashing.

Self-learning across people (ADR-250 §10)
RufloGovernor::export_anonymized_profile() publishes a participant's 20-field
vector + per-frequency scores from safe sessions only under a one-way hashed
tag; seed_from_cohort(&store, k) warm-starts a new person's optimizer from the
k nearest responders as down-weighted pseudo-observations
(observe_prior, ≥25× the real-observation noise). Priors shape where the
optimizer looks first but never count as measured data — they are excluded from
the EI incumbent, the audit log, and the clinician report. Per-session
drift_status() (Welford centroid over the physiological sub-vector —
stimulus inputs masked out) flags when recalibration is warranted.
Roadmap (ADR-250 §21)
M1 simulator ✅ · M2 device harness (envelope + e-stop contract) ✅ · M3 RuView state contract ✅ · M4 optional EEG input ✅ · M5 adaptive optimizer (BO + bandit
- closed-loop) ✅ · M6 trial mode (sham/blinding + clinician export) ✅ ·
§10 RuVector self-learning (cohort warm-start, drift detection, clustering) ✅.
Hardware actuation, real RF sensing, and real EEG land behind feature-flagged
adapters. An HNSW backend (the
ruvectorcrates) drops in forProfileStoreonce cohorts grow past ~10⁵ profiles.
