patient - Story 102502 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

My hands were covered in potting soil, and my back ached from tending the tomato plants. The heat shimmered off the brick patio. Then, a blur of golden fur. Buster, that energetic golden retriever from next door, was back.

I closed my eyes for a moment, enjoying the brief respite from the sun. When I opened them, I saw him wagging his tail. He was panting with excitement.

"Hey, buddy," I said, my voice quiet. I gently brushed the dirt off my hands and then ambled toward the fence, knowing I would have to gently coax him back.

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.
