PISCO Compression Probe
A lightweight classifier that predicts whether PISCO's compressed representation will yield a correct answer — enabling selective routing between compressed and full-context inference.
Model: Mid-layer hidden state probe trained on PISCO decoder representations. Task: Binary classification — 0 = no overflow, compressed answer is correct, 1 = information overflow, compressed answer is likely wrong.

# X: last-token hidden state from PISCO decoder layer 16 (shape: N x 4096)
# Captured during forward — input is [instruction + compressed context + query]
probs = clf.predict_proba(X) # np.ndarray, P(overflow)
preds = clf.predict(X) # binary, uses stored thresholdRouting logic
# pred=0 → answer likely correct → use PISCO output
# pred=1 → answer likely wrong → fall back to full contextCitation
