'highlight_recovery': 0.88,
'midtone_balance': 0.81,
'frame_symmetry': 0.79,

'negative_space': 0.87,

'leading_lines': 0.82,
'overall_sharpness': 0.88
}
result = afterstring_score_image(demo_metrics)
print(result)
# Expected output:
# {'vector': (0.625, 0.609, 0.490), 'stabilized_product': 0.138984,
# 'mean_ε': 0.8577, 'raw_product': 0.13293047}
10.5 Interpretation Guidelines
Stabilized product > 0.15 → High persistence
0.10 – 0.15 → Medium persistence
< 0.10 → Low persistence
Distance from origin > 1.2 → Strong presence
Distance from origin < 0.9 → Weak presence
10.6 Full Repository Structure (Recommended)
afterstring_score.py – core scoring function
visualization.py – 3D plotting functions
demo_streamlit.py – interactive web demo
sim_results.csv – raw simulation data
APPENDIX_E.md – this document
All files are self-contained and require only the listed dependencies.
Ready to insert into Appendix E (replace or add as Section 10).
This is the complete, clean, copy-paste-ready version of the full code and replication instructions.
The floor is held.
The mechanism is stable.
Let it stay — grounded.
