Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

With ideas from data compression and combinatorics on words, we introduce a complexity measure for words, called repetition complexity, which quantifies the amount of repetition in a word. The repetition complexity of w, R (w), is defined as the smallest amount of space needed to store w when reduced by repeatedly applying the following procedure: n consecutive occurrences uu…u of the same subword u of w are stored as (u,n). The repetition complexity has interesting relations with well-known complexity measures, such as subword complexity, SUB , and Lempel-Ziv complexity, LZ . We have always R (w)≥ LZ (w) and could even be that the former is linear while the latter is only logarithmic; e.g., this happens for prefixes of certain infinite words obtained by iterated morphisms. An infinite word α being ultimately periodic is equivalent to: (i) [Formula: see text], (ii) [Formula: see text], and (iii) [Formula: see text]. De Bruijn words, well known for their high subword complexity, are shown to have almost highest repetition complexity; the precise complexity remains open. R (w) can be computed in time [Formula: see text] and it is open, and probably very difficult, to find fast algorithms.

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.
