Both training. While they run, let me prepare the KL-divergence measurement for claim.md — my mechanism is that distributional match to the target (not per-doc quality) drives ppl. Let me wait for the ablation results first.

Clear ablation result:

  • B (unigram + dedup) = 297.5 — new best (dedup helps: removing 11,873 exact dups frees budget).
  • A (adds bigram) = 317.5 — bigram hurts (noisy/over-concentrates). Drop it.

Winning recipe = gate + code lane + unigram DSIR tilt (T≈0.05) + exact-dedup. Let me micro-sweep T with dedup to confirm the optimum, and meanwhile fold dedup into curate.py.

Both training. Now let me fold dedup into curate.py (drop bigram — it hurt) so the script itself reproduces the final selection. First, add the duplicate-fingerprint to the scoring pass:

GATE — drop non-English / boilerplate / word-salad / degenerate docs with cheap\n     structural filters (English stop-word ratio, letter ratio, unique-word ratio,\n     word length, length).  The stop-word-ratio gate is the workhorse: fluent English\n     prose (all four target registers) is rich in {the,of,and,to,a,in,is,...} whereas\n     CSS/JS dumps, foreign text and SEO word-salad are not.\n  2. SCORE — rank survivors by a TARGET bigram language model's mean per-word\n     log-probability (interpolated bigram+unigram+uniform).  Documents whose wording\n     is *typical of the target* score high; this rewards clean encyclopedic / news /\n     web-prose / Q&A English and demotes odd-but-English filler.\n  3. A small target-vs-pool log-ratio bonus adds discrimination toward\n     target-distinctive content over generic web filler.\n  Emit ids best-first until ~2x the 12M-token budget so packing never underfills.\n\nThe dev target only DEFINES the target word distribution (which generalises to the\nhidden official sample); no per-id labels are used.

curate.py output is byte-identical to the validated 297.5 selection — the deliverable is reproducible and confirmed. KL measurement running.

Let me use remaining time for one clean, low-risk ablation: does the code lane actually help? I'll test a no-code-lane variant (keeping 297.5 as submission regardless).

narration

Interesting — the KL(sel‖tgt) numbers partially refute my stated prediction: top-k has the lowest unigram KL (0.331) yet the worst ppl (538). That dissociation means unigram-marginal match isn't the mechanism — coverage of the target's breadth is. The right direction is KL(target‖selection) = the target's cross-entropy under the selection (penalizes missing coverage, exactly what a narrow top-k loses). Let me measure that and check the ablation.

narration

Two strong results:

  1. Code lane confirmed valuable: no-code = 320.4 vs 297.5 with it — 169 docs (~2% of budget) cut ppl 7% by giving the scarce code register (25% of eval) any exposure at all.
  2. KL(sel‖tgt): dedup lowest (0.318), random highest (0.465) — but top-k is anomalously low (0.331) despite worst ppl.

The coverage-sensitive direction H(target under selection) should track ppl cleanly (it penalizes both junk and narrowness). Let me measure all three directions:

H(tgt;sel) tracks the method ladder cleanly: lr_tilt 8.139 < uniform 8.200 < random 8.297 — mirroring ppl 304 < 366 < 457.
