Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Our earliest experience of the world, even before we have been born, is a sound-based one. The prime source of sound for a baby is its mother's voice. Music and language sound similar early on because babies hear the tune of the voice. Research done by a team led by Sandra Trehub, a psychologist at Toronto University, has shown that even new-born babies clearly respond to particular voices, and the tune and rhythm of spoken words with which they become familiar, suggesting that musical significance comes before verbal significance.

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.
