Victor KuznetsovandClaude Opus 5 56d7aff3a1 Record the qwen-zimage global denoise boundary against the Gemini oracle
A ladder on one native 2816x1536 Gemini original at seed 0, verified through the
Gemini app, puts the boundary between 0.08 and 0.10: 0.154, 0.12 and 0.10 read
clean, 0.08 reads SynthID FOUND. Fidelity rises monotonically all the way down,
so 0.10 buys +1.54 dB whole-image and +0.98 dB inside the face boxes over the
0.154 the profile ships for that size.

Recorded with the two constraints that stop it being acted on directly. It
brackets rather than calibrates - one image, one seed, and shipping the lowest
clean rung means shipping at the measured cliff edge. And the untested end is the
bottom, not the top: every Gemini oracle fixture is 2816x1536, so the Google-side
certification only ever covered 0.154, while the curve sends sub-1 MP images to
0.084-0.094. The resolution trend already recorded in this document says lower
processing resolution needs less strength, which is the shape the curve has, but
that is an inference and no small Gemini original has ever been through the
oracle. Downscaling is valid test material since SynthID survives it by design.
