Abstract
La mondialisation de la communication et des échanges rend nécessaire une approche de la traduction, acte culturel, qui soit moins ethnocentrique et plus universelle, plus complète. Les débats qui opposent depuis longtemps les sourciers aux ciblistes n'ont fait qu'accentuer le penchant ethnocentrique de diverses écoles en traductologie. On remarque ainsi la faiblesse d'une approche cibliste dans la traduction entre deux univers culturels et linguistiques éloignés, dans le cas de la traduction d'une oeuvre africaine vers une langue européenne par exemple. Cet article a pour but de démontrer qu'il ne s'agit pas de favoriser l'une ou l'autre des approches, mais plutôt de trouver un compromis qui tienne compte de l'ensemble des objectifs communicatifs de l'oeuvre à traduire.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
