Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Synthia is a versatile, modular and extensible Java-based data structure generation library. It is centered on the notion of “pickers”, which are objects producing values of a given type on demand. Pickers are stateful and can be given as input to other pickers; this chaining principle can generate objects whose structure follows a complex pattern. The paper describes the core principles and key features of the library, including test input shrinking, provenance tracking, and object mutation.

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.

How this classification was reachedexpand

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.
