Abstract
This systematic literature review examined the titles of academic texts in the context of genre analysis, an area obtaining increasing academic attention. Employing PRISMA (2020), this study systematically analyzed 52 studies (2004–2024) on academic titles sourced from three major academic databases (Web of Science, Scopus and ProQuest), with additional support from Google Scholar. A significant post-2020 increase in academic title studies illustrates the growing importance of effective title formulation in the digital age of academia. The review indicated a geographical concentration of studies from the regions of Asia and Europe, highlighting a gap in contributions from other regions like North and South America, and Africa. It also revealed a prevalent focus on the research contents of titles’ length, syntactic structure, and information attribute, alongside an emphasis on cross-disciplinary comparisons, particularly between titles from ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ sciences. This review not only mapped the current landscape of academic title research in genre analysis but also suggested potential directions for further exploration, aiming to enhance a more comprehensive and globally representative understanding of this crucial aspect of academic communication.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
