patient - Story 102025 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The afternoon sun cast long shadows across the living room as Samuel helped his niece, Olivia, assemble a puzzle. The puzzle pieces, a collection of shapes and colors, fit together slowly. He liked the quietness.

Olivia, all of a sudden, held up a crayon drawing. The drawing showed a smiling creature with horns and a mischievous twinkle in its eye. Samuel recognized the form. He'd nearly forgotten.

"Who's this, Olivia?" he asked, forcing a smile.

"That's Grumbles!" she declared, her eyes bright.

Samuel's heart gave a little skip. He forced himself to remain still, and watched the child.

"Grumbles likes to make things disappear," Olivia continued. "Can he make the broccoli disappear?"

Samuel chuckled softly. "Maybe. After you've finished the puzzle." He reached for another puzzle piece.

Role in Research

This story is one of 1,000 stories generated for the emotion patient. During extraction, it was fed through Gemma4-31B and its hidden state activations were captured at 11 layers.

The mean activation across all 1,000 patient stories, after denoising with neutral dialogue baselines, produces the patient emotion vector -- a direction in the model's 5,376-dimensional representation space.
