Previous baseline run collapsed to ~random retrieval (R@1 0.6% at epoch 8, train loss trending up 4.2 → 4.5). Hypothesis: at bs=8, DSS packs visually-identical drones into a batch where InfoNCE asks the model to discriminate them, and the hard-mining queue amplifies that hardness — together they prevent convergence from a near-random start. Override the new baseline config to run with the simpler regime: sampler_type = "mutex" (disable DSS, keep only the no-false-negative guarantee) hard_mining_k = 0 (use full queue as uniform negatives, no per-query top-K) Fresh `out/gtauav/baseline_mutex` output dir so results stay separate from the failed run's mixed logs. Other architecture changes (shared DINOv3 WEB, MONA in last 12 blocks, grad_accum=8) kept — verify they work with simple sampling before layering DSS/mining back on.
