Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Often, statistical evaluations of metric data are overlooked in ceramic studies. This paper evaluates degrees of precision and repeatability through the application of a coefficient of variation analysis and a repeated measures ANOVA. First, the author assessed the use of calipers for measuring metric data that pertains to decorative elements. Second, the author assessed the degree of statistical difference between measurements taken and measurements that have been rounded, a technique used to account for intra-observer error. The results demonstrate that the precision and repeatability of calipers is suitable for effectively measuring metric data values, and the precision of non-rounded values does not differ greatly from rounded values. The author argues that calipers are an effective metric measuring aid that further contribute to studies of personal actions and thought processes of potters. As a result, archaeological focus can integrate a micro-scale understanding of potting communities to consider finding individual variation and the learning landscapes of inexperienced potters.

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.
