IPM Protocol Dynamic Regime Sensitivity Analysis

This experiment analyzes how dynamical metrics respond to controlled perturbations in coupled systems. A controlled increase in thermal noise is applied during a specific interval. The experiment measures three projection functionals: Φ* (spectral organization), DIG (temporal autocorrelation), and coherence (self-model alignment). Results show consistent metric changes during perturbation (Φ*: -15.9%, DIG: -25.3%) and correlation (0.594) between Φ* and DIG. The experiment demonstrates co-responsiveness to global noise, not dimensional independence or epistemological validation of metrics. Note on scope: This is a preliminary sensitivity analysis. The observed correlation may arise from shared dependence on global noise, system energy, or latent field dynamics. This experiment does not distinguish these possibilities.
