patient - Story 102958 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The time capsule, found during a school field trip, was a source of excitement for the children. But for Daniel, the teacher assigned to oversee it, the experience was different. He didn’t feel that same urgency.

He took his time unpacking the contents: a worn copy of *The Very Hungry Caterpillar*, a set of brightly colored crayons, and a cassette tape. He played the tape. Hearing the voices of the children he had taught over the years was a bittersweet experience. He smiled. He would get to the other artifacts, when he was ready.

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.
