QIF-T0061
highCoherence mimicry
Tier 5 — Theoretical (Modeled / Simulated)
Legacy status: THEORETICAL
Craft malicious signals that maintain legitimate coherence scores (Cs) to bypass QI metric. Directly attacks QIF's detection mechanism. Defense: multi-factor signal validation, behavioral analysis beyond coherence, ensemble detection.

Clinical Analog
Coherence-based neurofeedback (SMR/beta coherence training)
Treats
- ADHD (SMR training)
- autism (coherence normalization)

Population Vulnerability
CRB vulnerability adjustment (γ=0.30) accounts for age, diagnosis severity, consent capacity, and device dependency.
| Population | NISS Base | Adjusted | Severity | Delta |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adult (Default) | 0.7 | 0.7 | Low | - |
| Child (10yr) + ADHD | 0.7 | 0.8 | Low | +0.12 |
| Adult with ALS | 0.7 | 0.8 | Low | +0.11 |
