patient - Story 102745 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The house shook. Not a tremor of an earthquake, but the heavy collapse of a hundred-year-old pine. His neighbor’s tree had fallen, thankfully missing his home. He leaned against the doorway, watching the aftermath.

He spotted young Tim, the neighbor’s son, pacing back and forth, a phone glued to his ear. He was clearly overwhelmed. He casually leaned against the doorframe, watching.

Tim, noticing him, approached, clearly upset. He explained the insurance, the cleanup, the whole ordeal. He listened quietly, nodding occasionally. "Take a deep breath, Tim," he suggested, his voice low and soothing. "We'll get through this. No need to fret."

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.
