Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Infrared absorption spectroscopy is a versatile analytical method that can identify different compounds in archaeological materials and sediments by measuring the portions of the infrared spectrum absorbed by specific molecules. This technique was developed in the 1930s for the characterization of industrial materials, and then applied to the study of artifacts and works of art starting from the 1950s. In the last three decades, infrared spectroscopy has become an established tool in archaeological fieldwork, where it is used to obtain real‐time information regarding the archaeological contexts under excavation. Infrared spectrometry can determine the presence of crystalline and disordered inorganic materials, as well as organic materials in archaeological sediments, and thus it is a valuable method in addressing problems related to the preservation of the archaeological record, site formation processes, post‐depositional alterations, stratigraphic correlations, absolute chronology, pyrotechnology, and past human activities.

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.

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.
