# ⚡ Spectral Embeddings (MKM Core)

**Spectral Embeddings** replace heavyweight neural transformer backbones with closed-form, deterministic linear-spectral operators. By projecting high-dimensional multiscale manifolds into a compact spectral Hilbert space ($W \in \mathbb{R}^{60 \times 16384}$), this model delivers high-accuracy semantic embeddings at **0.45 ms per sentence** on commodity CPUs without requiring GPUs, PyTorch, or large runtime dependencies.

## 🚀 Key Performance Indicators

Evaluated against the **Qwen3-Embedding (0.6B)** neural teacher model:

| Metric | Neural Teacher (`qwen3-embedding:0.6b`) | Spectral Student (`EMBEDDINGS_CORE.npz`) | Delta / Factor |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Inference Latency** | 30.52 ms / sentence | **0.45 ms / sentence** | **68.4× faster** |
| **Memory / VRAM Footprint** | ~1.2 GB (VRAM / RAM) | **3.93 MB** (RAM) | **>300× smaller** |
| **Probe 2 Semantic Accuracy** | 100.0% (10/10) | **100.0% (10/10)** | **100% Agreement** |
| **Active Embedding Dimensions** | 1024-D Dense | **60-D Spectral Manifold** | **17× more compact** |

## 🐳 Serving via Docker or Hugging Face Spaces

The included engine serves both an interactive web playground and an Ollama-compatible `/api/embed` REST API.

### 1. `Dockerfile`
```dockerfile
FROM python:3.11-slim
WORKDIR /app

RUN pip install --no-cache-dir numpy huggingface-hub

COPY requirements.txt /app/
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt

COPY app.py index.html /app/
COPY EMBEDDINGS_CORE.npz /app/EMBEDDINGS_CORE.npz

EXPOSE 7860
CMD ["python3", "app.py"]
```

### 2. Run Container Locally
```bash
docker build -t spectral-embeddings .
docker run -d -p 7860:7860 --name spectral-embeddings spectral-embeddings
```

### 3. Query Using Ollama's Protocol

```bash
curl http://localhost:7860/api/embed -d '{
  "model": "spectral-embed-v2-online",
  "input": "How do I reset my account password?"
}'
```

**Response:**
```json
{
  "embeddings": [
    [-0.1241, 0.4512, 0.0891, -0.6120, 0.2319, ...]
  ],
  "dim": 60,
  "model": "spectral-embed-v2-online"
}
```

## 💻 Python Client Usage

Query your running local container or Hugging Face Space endpoint using standard Python:

```python
import urllib.request
import json
import numpy as np

API_URL = "http://localhost:7860/api/embed"

def embed(texts: list[str]) -> np.ndarray:
    payload = json.dumps({"input": texts}).encode("utf-8")
    req = urllib.request.Request(
        API_URL, 
        data=payload, 
        headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"}
    )
    with urllib.request.urlopen(req) as resp:
        data = json.loads(resp.read().decode("utf-8"))
        return np.array(data["embeddings"], dtype=np.float32)

def cosine_similarity(a: np.ndarray, b: np.ndarray) -> float:
    return float(np.dot(a, b) / (np.linalg.norm(a) * np.linalg.norm(b)))

# Example semantic comparison
sentences = [
    "How do I reset my account password?",
    "Steps to change login credentials and recover access.",
    "The weather forecast calls for rain tomorrow."
]

vectors = embed(sentences)

sim_paraphrase = cosine_similarity(vectors[0], vectors[1])
sim_unrelated = cosine_similarity(vectors[0], vectors[2])

print(f"sim(Anchor, Paraphrase) = {sim_paraphrase:.4f}")
print(f"sim(Anchor, Unrelated)  = {sim_unrelated:.4f}")
```

## 📐 Architecture & Principles

### 1. Multiscale Manifold Representation
Text is deterministically lifted into a high-dimensional subword coordinate space that captures character-level roots, word identity, and compositional syntax without tokenization overhead.

### 2. Spectral Subspace Compression
A pre-distilled linear projection maps sparse text representations into the principal semantic directions of the teacher model:

$$
z = W x + b, \qquad W \in \mathbb{R}^{60 \times 16384}
$$

### 3. Hyperspherical Normalization
Embeddings are constrained to the 59-dimensional unit hypersphere $\mathbb{S}^{59}$:

$$
\hat{z} = \frac{z}{\|z\|_2}
$$

### 4. Calibrated Metric Space
Semantic distances are decoded through an anisotropic metric tensor $M$ optimized for fine-grained semantic discrimination:

$$
\mathcal{D}(a, b) = \exp\left(-\sqrt{\sum_{k=1}^{60} M_{kk} (a_k - b_k)^2}\right)
$$
