Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

It has recently been shown that neural networks can learn particular mathematical groups, for example, the Klein 4group (Jamrozik & Shultz, 2007).However, there are groups with any number of elements, all of which are said to instantiate the abstract group structure.Learning to differentiate groups from other structures that are not groups is a very difficult task.Contrary to some views, we show that neural networks can learn to recognize finite groups consisting of up to 4 elements.We present this problem as a case study that exhibits the advantages of knowledge-based learning over knowledge-free learning.In addition, we also show the surprising result that the way in which the KBCC algorithm recruits previous knowledge reflects some deep structural properties of the patterns that are learned, namely, the structure of the subgroups of a given group.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
