Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The expression concatenated exploration refers at once to a longitudinal research process and the resulting set of field studies that are linked together, as it were, in a chain leading to cumulative, often formal, grounded theory. Concatenated exploratory research is rare in the social sciences (though least so in anthropology), which helps explain why the problem of poor ethno-graphic memory exists. The goal of this article is to describe the nature of this special kind of continuous research effort, discuss its crucial role in the development of grounded theory, and link it to the problem of memory in ethno-graphic research.

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.

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.
