We show that the structure of an almost-commutative spectral triple emerges in a semi-classical limit from a geometric construction on a configuration space of gauge connections. The geometric construction resembles that of a spectral triple with a Dirac operator on the configuration space that interacts with the so-called \(\textbf{HD}\) -algebra, which is an algebra of operator-valued functions on the configuration space, and which is generated by parallel transports along flows of vector fields on the underlying manifold. In a semi-classical limit, the \(\textbf{HD}\) -algebra produces an almost-commutative algebra where the finite factor depends on the representation of the \(\textbf{HD}\) -algebra and on the point in the configuration space over which the semi-classical state is localized. Interestingly, we find that the Hilbert space, in which the almost-commutative algebra acts, comes with a double fermionic structure that resembles the fermionic doubling found in the noncommutative formulation of the standard model. Finally, the emerging almost-commutative algebra interacts with a spatial Dirac operator that emerges in the semi-classical limit. This interaction involves both factors of the almost-commutative algebra.
