Armiger Plugin #5 — Conformal Calibration & BEP-44 Decentralized DHT Updater (armiger-calibration-dht)

Per-head temperature scaling, Menon prior adjustments, Mondrian conformal safety gates (100.00% junk accuracy on oct15_confirmation N=2,170 and 99.90% on beyond_confirmation N=977), and a Hybrid Post-Quantum Ed25519 + WOTS+-SHAKE256 signed BEP-44 / BEP-46 BitTorrent DHT update & RSI engine.
Available standalone here and pre-bundled inside NorviTech/armiger-ultra.

1. Per-Head Calibration & Mondrian Conformal Safety Gates (calibration.json)

Raw neural network logits are often overconfident on rare classes (course, comic, software) and high-stakes safety boundaries (adult, junk). calibration.json + ArmigerCalibrator apply:

• Per-Head Temperature Scaling ($T_h$) and Menon Long-Tail Logit Adjustments ($\tau_h \log \pi_h$) across all 8 classification heads.
• Mondrian Conformal Safety Thresholds (Unmutated Ground-Truth Keys):
  • adult: 0.5451 (98.53% on oct15_confirmation N=2,781, 98.62% on beyond_confirmation N=1,016, 99.90% on zero_cue_2000 N=2,000, 100.00% on multilang_3000 N=3,000)
  • junk: 0.1010 (100.00% on oct15_confirmation 2,170/2,170, 100.00% on fresh_confirmation 1,291/1,291, 99.90% on beyond_confirmation 976/977, and 7/7 (100%) disguised executable malware traps blocked)
  • owner_scope: 0.4770 (98.65% on oct15_confirmation 2,633/2,669, 99.80% on zero_cue_2000, 99.90% on multilang_3000)

2. Decentralized BEP-44 + Ed25519 DHT Update Engine (ArmigerDHTUpdater)

When Armiger or Armiger Ultra runs inside a distributed indexer (Bitmagnet and self-hosted media indexers), ArmigerDHTUpdater enables opt-in decentralized hot-reloading of new zero-cue catalog entries, swarm-priors tables, and rank-8 LoRA micro-adapters directly over the mainline BitTorrent DHT:

• BEP-44 Mutable DHT Pointers + BEP-46 Infohash Distribution: Nodes look up SHA1(pubkey || "armiger-ultra-v2") on the DHT to discover the latest signed bundle infohash.
• Cryptographic Anti-Spoofing (Ed25519 + Monotonic seq): Every manifest must carry a valid Ed25519 signature from the pinned offline root public key and a strictly increasing sequence number (seq > current_seq), preventing spoofed updates and downgrade attacks.
• $K$-of-$N$ Quorum & Safe Formats Only: Bundles contain only JSON, ONNX, or SafeTensors tensors (never arbitrary Python pickle code) and require a configurable $K$-of-$N$ attestation quorum before activation.

3. Distributed Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI) & Data Engine (armiger_dht_rsi.py)

For multi-agent indexers, private media stacks, and community clusters, armiger_dht_rsi.py provides a production-grade, zero-trust distributed training & calibration telemetry pipeline:

1. Universal Adapters (Client-Agnostic across Media Stacks): Native ingestion for series, movie, audio, and publication library webhooks, ffprobe / MediaInfo physical stream inspectors, and qBittorrent / Transmission completion events.
2. Multi-Stage Physical Ground-Truth Verification: Rejects raw unverified model predictions. Observations require 100% download verification, physical stream decodability, and canonical catalog matches (series_catalog, movie_catalog, audio_catalog, isbn). Active malware masquerades (.exe or .scr disguised as media) are physically isolated as junk canaries.
3. Cryptographic Anonymization & Differential Privacy: Strips all private tracker passkeys, IPv4/IPv6 addresses, and user home directory paths. Generates salted HMAC-blinded syntactic title stems. Adds $(\epsilon, \delta)$-differential privacy (Laplace perturbation + 16MB log-binning) and Poisson timing jitter ($\Delta t \sim \text{Exp}(\lambda)$) against traffic analysis.
4. Post-Quantum End-to-End Encryption: Hybrid X25519 ECDH + NIST FIPS 203 ML-KEM-768 lattice key encapsulation (with Fujisaki-Okamoto CCA2 implicit rejection), combined via SHAKE-256 / HKDF-SHA3-256 with 256-bit ChaCha20-Poly1305 AEAD payload encryption.
5. Hybrid Post-Quantum Anti-Rollback Protocol: BEP-44 strictly monotonic sequence numbers (seq > current_seq) paired with Hybrid Ed25519 + WOTS+-SHAKE256 (RFC 8391 / NIST FIPS 205 hash-based PQ) threshold multi-signatures ($M$-of-$N$ federation quorum).
6. Sybil-Resistant ASN Quorum & Canary Gate: Enforces $K$-of-$N$ distinct-ASN peer attestation quorum, strict format whitelisting (SafeTensors, ONNX, JSON only; zero pickle tolerance), and a mandatory local 500-item golden canary regression gate (rejects any update with malware bypass or Mondrian safety degradation).
7. Opt-In / Opt-Out Modes: Supports off, pull_only, and anonymous_contribute.

Quickstart

from calibration_and_dht import ArmigerCalibrator
from armiger_dht_rsi import ArmigerDHTRSIEngine, SeriesWebhookAdapter

# 1. Conformal calibration
cal = ArmigerCalibrator("calibration.json")
probs_cat = cal.calibrate_head("category", [2.4, -1.1, -3.0, -2.5, -3.1, -2.8, -3.2, -2.9, -3.0, -3.4, -2.0])
gates = cal.evaluate_safety_gates(p_adult=0.02, p_junk=0.004, p_excluded_scope=0.01)
print("Calibrated top prob:", max(probs_cat), "Safety gates:", gates)

# 2. Distributed RSI Engine
engine = ArmigerDHTRSIEngine(mode="anonymous_contribute")
obs = SeriesWebhookAdapter.parse_webhook({"eventType": "Download", "series": {"seriesCatalogId": 371980}})
ok, reason, record = engine.ingest_candidate(obs)
print("Ingested observation:", ok, reason)
