stimulated - Story 139150 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The old house felt larger than usual. The silence in the house, usually a comfort, was now unbearable. He reread the letter, the words felt like taunts. His mentor, Mr. Johnson, had gone. The thought left him hollow. He felt a strange need to do something.

He started to clean, scrubbing the floors. He needed to keep moving. He rearranged the furniture. He needed to be active. He was the only one. He needed to push forward.

Role in Research

This story is one of 1,000 stories generated for the emotion stimulated. 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 stimulated stories, after denoising with neutral dialogue baselines, produces the stimulated emotion vector -- a direction in the model's 5,376-dimensional representation space.
