Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Background: Today’s society is perceived and interpreted through the global phenomenon of communication, which calls into question the foundations of meaning on which the semantics associated with the word communication are based. Analysis: An etymology of the word reveals, from its distant Indo-European origins to the construction of the neologism and its definitive spelling, the main semantic elements that are associated with the idea of communication. Conclusion and Implications: Although today it is increasingly associated with the function of transmission, the word through its journey shows that the idea of communication is a processual dynamic that has always been closely associated with a relational state of reciprocity, a state directly caused by the action of connection. The idea of communication is thus intrinsic to the character of what is social.

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.
