Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

"The central theme of this book - The origins of human choral singing - is discussed in the wide interdisciplinary context of the origins of music, evolution of human intelligence, language, speech, distribution of stuttering, dyslexia, and acquisition of phonological system by children from different cultures. Scholars view about the first edition of this book : - SIMHA AROM, CNRS, France : " I totally agree with the main idea of Joseph Jordania about the ancient origins of choral singing and its gradual disappearance. To my opinion also,there is no "evolution" from monophonic to polyphonic singing, and I was glad to see that the argumentation of this idea is so strong and logic" . - STEVEN BROWN, Simon Fraser University,Canada :"Joseph Jordania's book is a masterpiece of comparative musicology by a person with an amazing knowledge base. As a co-editor of the book "The Origins of Music"(2000),I am thrilled to finally see a true work of comparative musicology appear after many decades of neglect. This is the kind of material that people,from psychology to evolutionary biology, need to ponder as to incorporate music into the emerging picture of human evolution". --

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
