However, their capacity changes are usually constrained by predefined structures or triggered by task boundaries and conflict signals. This raises a fundamental question: can a network start from exact single-path computation and grow a new independent path only when persistent optimization evidence appears? We propose the Emergent Modular Atomic Network (EMAN), an optimization-driven framework for exposing an antisymmetric growth direction through latent relative phases without instantiating a second path, and for monitoring multiple decision signals during training to transform local optimization evidence into a structural decision. EMAN materializes two equal-capacity independent paths only after certification. EMAN adaptively allocates shared and task-specific representation capacity to accommodate varying task requirements. Extensive experiments on controlled rank settings, PASCAL-Context, and NYUv2 validate its effectiveness, achieving improved performance at a competitive computational cost.
