CHRONOSCOPE: Blind Temporal Measurement Discovery for Hidden-State Reconstruction

CHRONOSCOPE investigates chronoscopic information reconstruction: recovering hidden temporal state from surviving observations whose informative structure is weak, distributed, or unknown. This self-contained research release combines mathematical theory, executable algorithms, synthetic benchmarks, and machine-readable documentation.

The central contribution is a framework for learning an unknown measurement operator from temporal structure without hidden-state labels. In the principal model, individual observed coordinates are independent of the hidden state, while their joint configuration encodes it through an unknown binary parity. Temporal persistence creates detectable structure in observation differences. A finite-field candidate-discovery algorithm uses this structure to recover the operator, with separate validation and audit data. Conventional state-space inference then supports retrodiction, missing-state reconstruction, and forecasting.

The theoretical results include finite-sample recovery bounds, a sufficient polynomial discovery regime under explicit assumptions, and quantitative limits imposed by switching rates and measurement noise. Further results characterize identifiability for balanced finite observation encodings and distinguish independent repeated measurements from duplicated noisy records. The framework separates information that is absent, statistically unidentifiable, and computationally difficult to access.

Four experimental suites examine operator discovery, spectral alternatives, physical readout noise, and end-to-end temporal reconstruction. In a specified 128-dimensional noiseless setting with a 1% latent-state switching probability, the operator was recovered in 20 of 20 trials. A separate 64-dimensional experiment achieved 94.89% missing-state reconstruction accuracy across 500 held-out trajectories grouped under 10 independently generated operators. Failure regimes and competitive spectral baselines are reported alongside successes. Independent-null controls produced two false audit acceptances in 200 trials at a nominal 1% threshold.

The package contains the main manuscript and foundational companion, theorem statements and proofs, source code, synthetic generators, fixed configurations, raw results, figures, reproduction scripts, prior-art analysis, falsification protocols, and implementation guidance. Structured claim and theorem indexes, metric records, provenance manifests, citation files, and AI-agent navigation documents support expert review and automated reuse.

Research status: conditional theoretical results and reproducible synthetic validation. General real-world applicability and scalable recovery under broader observation and noise models remain open. The work does not establish reconstruction from independent randomness or a universal temporal decoder.
