Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Cet article est le premier volet d’une étude sur le rapport des voyageurs européens en Afrique sub-saharienne aux 17 e et 18 e siècles avec la linguistique africaine. Il observe ici les raisons qui font que la communication s’avère non seulement difficile mais parfois impossible en raison des multiples langues parlées par les Africains, mais aussi de la problématique des langues à clics que les voyageurs découvrent. L’article rend compte encore à quel point la communication devient même trompeuse et remarque que la méconnaissance des langues conduit la plupart des voyageurs à nier, comme dans d’autres domaines, toute civilisation aux Africains. Réitérés d’un récit de voyage à l’autre, les propos de ces derniers permettent de dresser un ensemble de topoï liés à la communication.

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.
