patient - Story 102340 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The news, delivered by his wife during their dinner, landed with a soft thud in Henry’s chest. “The Rusty Spatula is closing,” she announced. He didn't interrupt her.

He kept chewing, savoring the flavors, the familiar tastes. The restaurant had been a second home for years. He’d known the owners, he knew the staff.

When he was done, he rinsed the dishes and started the dishwasher. He felt a deep ache, but it was nothing he couldn’t cope with. He'd find another place. He would adjust.

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.
