Activity counts measure attention, not model quality. Missing counts are unknown. Publication status follows the linked source; a listed venue alone does not confirm peer review.

A Direct branch produces a stable waveform anchor; a Flow branch (rectified flow) learns a short transport path conditioned on that anchor and a consensus of physiological candidates to fix residual phase and local morphology errors. Physiological Tensor-Product Attention injects a confidence-weighted periodic prior and uses low-rank tensor products across facial regions, cardiac cycles, and feature subspaces.
