Day 0 · Infrastructure
Project Scope and Method
1. Programme objective
The programme follows a research axis from video generation to world models, interactive worlds and embodied agents through daily, source-grounded articles. Each record must add a conceptual layer to the preceding days. Day 0 is not a research result; it is the infrastructure contract that makes the chain auditable.
2. Ninety-day phases
| Phase | Days | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Foundations | 1–15 | World-model formalism, POMDPs, latent dynamics, JEPA, video-model families and evaluation. |
| Generative world models | 16–35 | Genie, GameNGen, DIAMOND, Oasis, Cosmos, V-JEPA 2, Matrix-Game and EchoWM verification. |
| Representation and memory | 36–55 | 3D geometry, persistence, explicit memory, drift and long-horizon consistency. |
| Action and agents | 56–75 | Action conditioning, planning, reinforcement learning, robotics, sim-to-real and safety. |
| Synthesis | 76–90 | Contradiction resolution, benchmark design, testable hypotheses, survey and roadmap. |
3. Evidence levels
A Verified by a primary source. B Verified by a secondary source. C An explicit Ayazelrico inference. D Speculation; never presented as fact.
Unverified statements additionally carry [UNVERIFIED], [SPECULATION] or [CONTESTED] labels.
4. Quality, copyright and memory
Each day targets at least eight primary sources; every source is opened directly, atomic claims are written to Neon and independently cross-examined. No direct quotation exceeds 15 words. Diagrams are recreated. Production publication requires passing build, lint, broken-link, KaTeX, source-URL, copyright, accessibility and responsive checks.
Persistent research memory lives in Neon. research/state.json and research/graph.json are repository backups; Supabase is reserved for image and PDF assets.
5. Today’s delta
- The 90-day plan is exposed as five auditable phases.
- A/B/C/D evidence classes and unverified-claim labels are explicit publication rules.
- Routes, graph backup, BibTeX and ScholarlyArticle metadata are prepared for Day 1.
6. Self-audit
What is new: The publication and memory contract for the research series.
Weakest evidence: Day 0 makes no academic claim; it is an infrastructure record.
Expert objection: “Infrastructure complete” is asserted only through build, database, checkpoint and live HTTP verification.
7. English abstract
This Day 0 record defines the scope, evidence taxonomy, memory model and publication gates for Ayazelrico’s 90-day research programme. It is infrastructure documentation rather than a substantive research article. Day 1 begins the source-led investigation of world-model foundations.
