Microplex

Synthetic population engineering with a live control room.

This route is now organized like an operator surface instead of a report. Start from the matched-N mission, pivot into the saved runtime contract, and only drop into raw benchmark rows when you actually need them.

Mission

Stay anchored on matched-N, not vanity totals.

The route starts from the actual benchmark claim: Microplex at N households versus PolicyEngine at the same N, scored on PolicyEngine's native loss surface.

Interaction model

One workspace, multiple lenses.

Pipeline, runtime, diagnostics, architecture, and benchmark console now live behind one control-room shell instead of a long stack of static sections.

Current bottleneck

Record support matters more than weight tuning.

Direct PE-native post-export optimization only nudged loss. The larger problem is candidate construction: who is in the population, which tails are represented, and how much state and IRS support survives into export.

Live readout

The page now opens like a product surface.

The site snapshot still comes from saved artifacts, but the entry point is now interactive: you can move between the mission story, runtime contract, diagnostics, architecture, and full benchmark console without slogging through one long report.

Interactive workspace

Move through the system as an operator, not a reader.

The route now centers one interactive shell. Use it to switch between mission posture, build flow, saved runtime contract, diagnostics, architecture, and the full benchmark console.

Mission

Mission control

Start with the live benchmark posture: matched-N frontier, current artifact status, and the current country narrative.

Live posture / US

United States

Harness-backed parity, calibration diagnostics, and support coverage are all coming from one canonical saved artifact bundle.

What this route is for

Artifact 20260329T023846Z-82efda0b from cps_asec_2023.

Available tags: all_targets, benchmark.

Files: manifest.json, policyengine_harness.json, data_flow_snapshot.json.

Recommended path

Start here for the current benchmark story.

Open Runtime to see the saved artifact contract.

Use Diagnostics before trusting any headline benchmark number.
