### Loading the Model

```python
from geovocab2.train.model.core.david import David, DavidArchitectureConfig
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download

# Browse available models in MODELS_INDEX.json first!

# Specify model variant and run
model_name = "clip_vit_b16_cantor_big_window"
run_id = "20251104_154540"
accuracy = "78.90"  # From MODELS_INDEX.json

# Download config
config_path = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id="AbstractPhil/gated-david",
    filename=f"weights/{model_name}/{run_id}/david_config.json"
)
config = DavidArchitectureConfig.from_json(config_path)

# Download weights (accuracy in filename!)
weights_path = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id="AbstractPhil/gated-david",
    filename=f"weights/{model_name}/{run_id}/best_model_acc{accuracy}.safetensors"
)

# Download training history (optional - see full training curve)
history_path = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id="AbstractPhil/gated-david",
    filename=f"weights/{model_name}/{run_id}/training_history.json"
)

# Load model
from safetensors.torch import load_file
david = David.from_config(config)
david.load_state_dict(load_file(weights_path))
david.eval()
```

### Inference

```python
import torch
import torch.nn.functional as F

# Assuming you have CLIP features (512-dim for ViT-B/16)
features = get_clip_features(image)  # [1, 512]

# Load anchors
anchors_dict = torch.load("anchors.pth")

# Forward pass
with torch.no_grad():
    logits, _ = david(features, anchors_dict)
    predictions = logits.argmax(dim=-1)
```

## Architecture Overview

### Multi-Scale Processing
David processes inputs at multiple scales (256, 512, 768, 1024, 2048, 4096),
allowing it to capture both coarse and fine-grained features.

### Feature Geometry
Each class is represented by a pentachoron (4-simplex) in embedding space with 5 vertices:
- **Anchor**: Primary class representative
- **Need**: Complementary direction
- **Relation**: Contextual alignment
- **Purpose**: Functional direction
- **Observer**: Meta-perspective

### Rose Loss
Similarity computation uses role-weighted cosine similarities:
```
score = w_anchor * sim(z, anchor) + w_need * sim(z, need) + ...
```

### Fusion Strategy
**cantor_scale**: Intelligently combines predictions from multiple scales.

## Training Details

### Loss Components
- **Cross-Entropy**: Standard classification loss
- **Rose Loss**: Pentachora role-weighted margin loss (weight: 0.1→0.5)
- **Cayley Loss**: Geometric regularization (disabled)

### Optimization
- **Optimizer**: AdamW
- **Weight Decay**: 1e-05
- **Scheduler**: cosine_restarts
- **Gradient Clip**: 10.0
- **Mixed Precision**: False
