Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The increasing availability of web based collaboration tools fuels design conversation between heterogeneous stakeholders across organizational boundaries, underscoring the need for new designers to get to the heart of conversations that might include huge numbers of entries. The goal of this work is to show that linkography is a viable candidate to help make that kind of discovery possible. A linkograph links design moves with prior moves, resulting in a model of the design episode. The research methods were mixed, though primarily qualitative. The primary data comprised records of a series of eleven two to three hour design meetings over a six month duration, with five participants. A model for predicting the location of topic shifts was developed on the first two exploratory meetings, and tested on the remaining nine design meetings. The model used a finer-than-topic-shift granularity linkograph of the nine meetings to predict topic shifts. It combined a measure of both backward and forward links, plus a threshold, in order to segment the design discourse on topic shifts. An additional threshold comprising a number of segments was used to filter transitive links to retrieve contextualizing information from the discourse. The test included quantitative comparison of model segmentation with human segmentation, and qualitative evaluation of relevant contextual information drawn (using the model, the segmentation, and the linkograph) from previous design conversations. The results suggest that employment of linkography is a viable and pragmatic addition to design rationale.

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.
