IRAM-Omega-Q: A Computational Architecture for Uncertainty Regulation in Artificial Agents

Artificial agents can achieve strong task performance while remaining opaque with respect to internal regulation, uncertainty management, and stability under stochastic perturbation. We present IRAM-Omega-Q, a computational architecture that models internal regulation as closed-loop control over a quantum-like state representation. The framework uses density matrices instrumentally as abstract state descriptors, enabling direct computation of entropy, purity, and coherence-related metrics without invoking physical quantum processes. A central adaptive gain is updated continuously to maintain a target uncertainty regime under noise. Using systematic parameter sweeps, fixed-seed publication-mode simulations, and susceptibility-based phase-diagram analysis, we identify reproducible critical boundaries in regulation-noise space. We further show that alternative control update orderings, interpreted as perception-first and action-first architectures, induce distinct stability regimes under identical external conditions. These results support uncertainty regulation as a concrete architectural principle for artificial agents and provide a formal setting for studying stability, control, and order effects in cognitively inspired AI systems. The framework is presented as a technical model of adaptive regulation dynamics in artificial agents. It makes no claims regarding phenomenological consciousness, and the quantum-like formalism is used strictly as a mathematical representation for structured uncertainty and state evolution.

Using Artificial Intelligence for Particle Track Identification in CLAS12 Detector

In this article we describe the development of machine learning models to assist the CLAS12 tracking algorithm by identifying the best track candidates from combinatorial track candidates from the hits in drift chambers. Several types of machine learning models were tested, including: Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) and Extremely Randomized Trees (ERT). The final implementation was based on an MLP network and provided an accuracy $>99\%$. The implementation of AI assisted tracking into the CLAS12 reconstruction workflow and provided a 6 times code speedup.
