Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Motivated by the study of random temporal networks, we introduce a class of random trees that we coin \emph{uniform temporal trees}. A uniform temporal tree is obtained by assigning independent uniform $[0,1]$ labels to the edges of a rooted complete infinite $n$-ary tree and keeping only those vertices for which the path from the root to the vertex has decreasing edge labels. The $p$-percolated uniform temporal tree, denoted by $\mathcal{T}_{n,p}$, is obtained similarly, with the additional constraint that the edge labels on each path are all below $p$. We study several properties of these trees, including their size, height, the typical depth of a vertex, and degree distribution. In particular, we establish a limit law for the size of $\mathcal{T}_{n,p}$ which states that $\frac{|\mathcal{T}_{n,p}|}{e^{np}}$ converges in distribution to an $\exponential(1)$ random variable as $n \to \infty$. For the height $H_{n,p}$, we prove that $\frac{H_{n,p}}{np}$ converges to $e$ in probability. Uniform temporal trees show some remarkable similarities to uniform random recursive trees.

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.
