Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The concept of industry dynamism claims a central role in models of organizational adaptation. However, the development of new ways to study it has waned. Building on the literatures on nonlinear dynamical systems and information complexity, we introduce a fractal approach as a useful lens to industry dynamism and a fresh alternative and complement to prevailing approaches. This differs conceptually from existing methods in highlighting nonlinearity and recognizing endogenous and stable sources of apparent unpredictability. Further, it uses the fractal dimension, a measure of the jaggedness in a time series, which offers several advantages over existing dispersion-based measures of unpredictability. We apply the fractal approach in an exploratory longitudinal study of the turbulent US network television industry and demonstrate its ability to uncover distinct aspects of industry dynamism.

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.
