patient - Story 102736 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"I guess this is it," Ben said, his voice quiet. He and Finn were in the park, on their usual bench, watching the ducks glide across the pond. The sun was going down, painting the sky with streaks of orange and purple.

Ben had known, of course. Finn had been dropping hints for months. The chance to study abroad. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He sat very still as Finn told him.

Ben picked up a small twig, turning it over and over in his hands. He watched the water, the ducks, the other people in the park. He felt a gentle warmth in the center of his chest. "That's amazing, Finn. Truly."

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.
