Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The earliest fossil evidence of the Hominoidea is found in Africa at about 26 million years ago (Ma), but molecular dating of hominoid divergence events suggests an origin as early as 30 Ma. The oldest hominoids resemble the primitive catarrhine Aegyptopithecus in dental morphology, but by about 20 Ma the dentition is more modern. Early apes, best known from Kenya between about 19 and 17 Ma, are monkey‐like in their limb proportions and cranial morphology but ape‐like in details of the hips, hands, and feet. Middle Miocene apes (17–12 Ma) are transitional, with more modern teeth but limbs that are little changed from the early Miocene. Late Miocene apes all show evidence of some degree of suspension and orthogrady, as in living apes. About 12.5 Ma, fossil evidence records the earliest known hominines (African apes and humans) in Europe and pongines (orangutans) in Asia.

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.
