4. Drift Grammar#
Drift describes how tissue signal changes across time, layers, and modalities.
Drift Grammar Terms#
- DRIFT — magnitude of change between captures
- DRIFT‑VELOCITY — rate of change
- DRIFT‑VECTOR — direction of change
- DRIFT‑ZONE — regions with non‑random drift
- DRIFT‑BURST — sudden high‑velocity drift events
- DRIFT‑DECAY — reduction in drift velocity
- DRIFT‑NOISE — artifact‑driven signal change
- DRIFT‑MAP — spatial visualization of drift
Drift is the RTT counterpart to “progression” or “instability” in medicine.
5. r_Drift Operators#
1. op_drift()#
Compute drift magnitude between two signals.
[
op_drift(Signal_{T1}, Signal_{T2}) = Drift
]
2. op_drift_velocity()#
Measure rate of drift across time.
[
op_drift_velocity(Drift, \Delta t) = DriftVelocity
]
3. op_drift_vector()#
Determine directionality of drift (growth, shrinkage, migration).
[
op_drift_vector(Field_{T1}, Field_{T2}) = DriftVector
]
4. op_drift_zone()#
Identify regions with non‑random drift.
[
op_drift_zone(Field) = DriftZone
]
5. op_drift_burst()#
Detect sudden, high‑velocity drift events.
[
op_drift_burst(DriftVelocity) = Burst
]
6. op_drift_decay()#
Measure reduction in drift velocity (healing, stabilization).
[
op_drift_decay(Vel_{T1}, Vel_{T2}) = DriftDecay
]
7. op_drift_noise()#
Separate true drift from artifacts or device variance.
[
op_drift_noise(Signal_{T1}, Signal_{T2}, Noise) = DriftNoise
]
8. op_drift_map()#
Generate a spatial drift map across the field.
[
op_drift_map(Field) = DriftMap
]
9. op_drift_profile()#
Create a drift profile summarizing magnitude, velocity, and direction.
[
op_drift_profile(Drift, DriftVelocity, DriftVector) = DriftProfile
]
10. op_drift_predict()#
Predict future drift using resonance‑attached captures.
[
op_drift_predict(Capture^{+}) = DriftPrediction
]
11. op_drift_overlay()#
Generate a drift‑only overlay for teaching or AI assistance.
[
op_drift_overlay(DriftMap) = Overlay
]
6. Example Usage#
Example — CT Lung Nodule Progression#
Field = op_field(CAPTURE_CT, "right-upper-lobe")
Layer = op_layer(Field, density)
Signal_T1 = op_signal(Layer_T1)
Signal_T2 = op_signal(Layer_T2)
Drift = op_drift(Signal_T1, Signal_T2)
Velocity = op_drift_velocity(Drift, Δt)
Vector = op_drift_vector(Field_T1, Field_T2)
DriftMap = op_drift_map(Field)
Overlay = op_drift_overlay(DriftMap)
Interpretation:
- Drift shows progression
- Velocity shows rate
- Vector shows direction
- DriftMap visualizes change across the region
