Pass Rate Evolution

v2.2.1 P2 (Current) 16/20 (80%)
v2.2 P1: 14/20 (70%) | v2.1 Baseline: 7/20 (35%) | v2.0: 16/20 (80%, incorrect labels)

WAIC Conventions

ΔWAIC definition: WAIC(NFW) − WAIC(RFT). Positive favors RFT.
Reported both ways: per-pixel ΔWAIC and total ΔWAIC (per-pixel × N_masked).
Assumptions: identical mask; Gaussian pixel likelihood. (Non-Gaussian sensitivity noted in Methods.)

P2 Conversion Details

DCT Boundary Condition Refinements

P2 refinements successfully converted both near-miss EB cases using DCT Neumann boundary conditions to eliminate periodic FFT boundary leakage on finite observational patches.

Failure Atlas - Remaining 4 Clusters

Why These 4 Still Fail

The remaining 4 clusters (a1370, rxj1347, macs_j1423, cl_j1226) fail multiple gates simultaneously, indicating deeper astrophysical complexity beyond EB-mode leakage issues addressed by P1+P2.

Failure Patterns

  • • Offset failures: 115-189 kpc (all exceed 100 kpc limit)
  • • Peak errors: 0.219-0.257 (all exceed 0.20 limit)
  • • EB contamination: 0.323-0.339 (far exceed 0.22 limit)
  • • WAIC evidence: Still favor RFT but weaker (6-9 vs >10)

Likely Physical Causes

  • • Complex merger dynamics with multiple mass components
  • • Dense substructure requiring higher-order field terms
  • • Observational challenges (S/N, foregrounds, systematics)
  • • Boundary cases where current RFT formulation reaches limits

Next Steps (Future Work)

• Multi-scale analysis: Starlet (à trous) decomposition for complex substructure
• Theoretical extensions: Higher-order RFT field coupling terms
• Observational improvements: Better data quality and systematic control
• Hybrid approaches: RFT + minimal dark matter for extreme cases
