No hand-edited id list is involved:\nevery id is emitted by the stated per-register DSIR + fluency criterion.\n\n## Falsification", "originalFile": "# Curation claim\n\n## Hypothesis\nThe pool is mostly off-target web junk (shopping-cart / SEO / forum / navigation\nboilerplate, foreign-language and keyword-salad spam, duplicated pages). Under the\nfixed 12M-token budget, held-out perplexity on the *broad, equal-parts* HQ target\n(encyclopedic + general web prose + news + technical Q&A) is minimized by two\ncompounding moves:\n\n1. **Target-matched selection** — keep documents whose *content* distribution\n   resembles the disclosed target, via DSIR-style importance weighting (per-feature\n   `log P_target − log P_pool` on a common word uni/bi-gram vocabulary), and drop\n   boilerplate/duplicates.\n2. **Register balancing** — allocate the budget *equally* across the target's four\n   registers using one importance classifier per register, instead of ranking by a\n   single global target score. A single global score collapses the budget onto the\n   one register that is easiest to separate from pool junk (news), starving the\n   others; because the target is equal-parts, the starved registers dominate the\n   average loss.\n\n## Mechanism / prediction (observable *other* than final perplexity)\nMechanism: perplexity = exp(mean next-token loss) averaged over four equal target\nquarters. A tiny 30M model on 12M tokens is capacity/data limited, so each quarter's\nloss falls with the share of *in-register* training tokens and saturates; the mean\nis dominated by whichever quarter is most starved. Matching the training register\nmix to the target's equal mix therefore minimizes the mean.\n\nConcretely predicted, measurable **without** looking at the final score:\n\n- **Budget-slice composition (measured, no training needed).** Ranking by a single\n  global target classifier fills the 12M budget **~77% news / ~20% web-prose /\n  ~2% technical / ~1% encyclopedic**. The per-register method fills it **25/25/25/25**.\n  This composition is computable directly from `selection.json` + the pool.\n- **Allocation sweep is convex with its minimum at equal shares.** Pushing the\n  technical share *above* 25% must *raise* perplexity (the target is equal-parts, so\n  over-serving one register starves others). Verified: tech-boosted (32.5% technical)\n  scored **354.4** vs **347.5** for equal — worse, as predicted.\n- **Learned feature weights separate boilerplate from prose.** The classifier's most\n  pool-typical (negative) unigrams are commerce/spam tokens (`cart`, `sitemap`,\n  `accessories`, `clomid`, `towbars`); its most target-typical (positive) tokens are\n  register-content words (`wicket`/`blockquote`/`bjp`/`regiment`). A curation that\n  merely maximized length or raw token count would not show this separation.\n- **Fluency gate removes proper-noun keyword-salad.** Requiring a minimum function-\n  word ratio on the prose registers drops spam like \"Boletos Excite Tickets Royal\n  Rumble Boston Bruins …\" (≈0% stopwords) that a mean-log-odds score otherwise ranks\n  high because proper nouns look target-like. Observable: mean stopword ratio of the\n  selected prose docs rises well above that of the discarded high-score salad.\n\n## Falsification\nThe claim is false if:\n- A **single global target ranking** (no register balancing) matches or beats the\n  balanced selection at equal token budget. (Measured: global **388.2** vs balanced\n  **337.3** — balancing wins by ~13%.)\n- A **random** selection matches the curated one. (Measured: random **457.2** vs\n  curated **337.3**.)\n- **Over-weighting** one register (e.g. technical > 25%) *lowers* perplexity — it\n  raised it (354.4), so the equal-mix mechanism holds.\nIf, instead, the win came only from generic \"clean-text\" filtering, then shuffling\nregister shares would not matter — but it does (77/20/2/1 → 388, 25/25/25/25 → 337).\n\n## Transfer\n- **To the hidden target:** the criterion keys on *content* word n-grams, not on the\n  dev sample's surface formatting (WikiText spacing / `@.@`), so it transfers to the\n  disjoint hidden sample of the *same* four-register domain rather than memorizing\n  the dev set.\n- **To other targets:** the method is target-agnostic — swap `multi_dev.npy` for any\n  disclosed target sample and re-run; the per-register split + equal-allocation\n  round-robin generalizes to any known target mixture (change the register detector\n  and the allocation weights).\n- **To larger budgets/models:** balancing matters *most* when the budget is far\n  smaller than the pool (starvation is acute). As the budget grows toward the pool\n  size the balanced and global selections converge, so the gap should shrink with a\n  larger token budget — a further falsifiable prediction.\n", "structuredPatch": [{"oldStart": 46, "oldLines": 6, "newStart": 46, "newLines": 13, "lines": ["   high because proper nouns look target-like.

1	# Curation claim
2	
3	## Hypothesis
4	The pool is mostly off-target web junk (shopping-cart / SEO / forum / navigation
5	boilerplate, foreign-language and keyword-salad spam, duplicated pages). Under the
6	fixed 12M-token budget, held-out perplexity on the *broad, equal-parts* HQ target
7	(encyclopedic + general web prose + news + technical Q&A) is minimized by two
8	compounding moves:
9	
10	1. **Target-matched selection** — keep documents whose *content* distribution
11	   resembles the disclosed target, via DSIR-style importance weighting (per-feature
12	   `log P_target − log P_pool` on a common word uni/bi-gram vocabulary), and drop
13	   boilerplate/duplicates.
14	2. **Register balancing** — allocate the budget *equally* across the target's four
15	   registers using one importance classifier per register, instead of ranking by a
16	   single global target score. A single global score collapses the budget onto the
17	   one register that is easiest to separate from pool junk (news), starving the
18	   others; because the target is equal-parts, the starved registers dominate the
19	   average loss.
20	
21	## Mechanism / prediction (observable *other* than final perplexity)
22	Mechanism: perplexity = exp(mean next-token loss) averaged over four equal target
23	quarters. A tiny 30M model on 12M tokens is capacity/data limited, so each quarter's
24	loss falls with the share of *in-register* training tokens and saturates; the mean
25	is dominated by whichever quarter is most starved. Matching the training register
26	mix to the target's equal mix therefore minimizes the mean.
27	
28	Concretely predicted, measurable **without** looking at the final score:
29	
30	- **Budget-slice composition (measured, no training needed).** Matching is by
31	  *content* word n-grams via four per-register DSIR classifiers, and the round-robin
32	  fills the 12M budget **25/25/25/25 in that classifier space by construction** —
33	  `curate.py` prints these est-token shares every run. This classifier-space balance
34	  is the operative quantity. Note it is NOT visible to a *surface* re-labeling: running
35	  the `register_of` surface detector on the shipped `selection.json` reads
36	  **tech 3% / wiki 0.5% / news 41% / prose 56%**, because raw pool web text lacks the
37	  target registers' surface formatting (WikiText `@.@` spacing, agency datelines) — pool
38	  docs can only be matched by content vocabulary, not surface form (which is exactly why
39	  the criterion transfers to a hidden sample rather than memorizing dev surface quirks).
40	  A single global target ranking instead collapses the budget toward the one register
41	  most separable from pool junk (news-like prose), starving the technical/encyclopedic
42	  content quarters — the ablation below shows this costs ~15% perplexity.
43	- **Allocation sweep is convex with its minimum at equal shares.** Pushing the
44	  technical share *above* 25% must *raise* perplexity (the target is equal-parts, so
45	  over-serving one register starves others). Verified: tech-boosted (32.5% technical)
46	  scored **354.4** vs **347.5** for equal — worse, as predicted.
47	- **Learned feature weights separate boilerplate from prose.** The classifier's most
48	  pool-typical (negative) unigrams are commerce/spam tokens (`cart`, `sitemap`,
49	  `accessories`, `clomid`, `towbars`); its most target-typical (positive) tokens are
50	  register-content words (`wicket`/`blockquote`/`bjp`/`regiment`). A curation that
51	  merely maximized length or raw token count would not show this separation.
52	- **Fluency gate removes proper-noun keyword-salad.** Requiring a minimum function-
53	  word ratio on the prose registers drops spam like "Boletos Excite Tickets Royal
54	  Rumble Boston Bruins …" (≈0% stopwords) that a mean-log-odds score otherwise ranks
55	  high because proper nouns look target-like. Observable: mean stopword ratio of the
56	  selected prose docs rises well above that of the discarded high-score salad.
57	
58	## Reproducibility
59	`curate.py` is deterministic (crc32 hashing, fixed seed): running it regenerates the
60	shipped `selection.json` (39,907 ids), which packs to exactly 12,000,000 GPT-2 tokens
61	(3.2× coverage) and reproduces **held-out PPL 337.32** on the disclosed target dev
62	sample under the frozen `train_nano.py` recipe. No hand-edited id list is involved:
63	every id is emitted by the stated per-register DSIR + fluency criterion.
64	
65	## Falsification
66	The claim is false if:
67	- A **single global target ranking** (no register balancing) matches or beats the
68	  balanced selection at equal token budget. (Measured: global **388.2** vs balanced
69	  **337.3** — balancing wins by ~13%.)
70	- A **random** selection matches the curated one. (Measured: random **457.2** vs
71	  curated **337.3**.)
72	- **Over-weighting** one register (e.g. technical > 25%) *lowers* perplexity — it
73	  raised it (354.4), so the equal-mix mechanism holds.
74	If, instead, the win came only from generic "clean-text" filtering, then how the
75	budget is split across the four content-register classifiers would not matter — but it
76	does: a single global ranking scores **388**, per-register equal allocation **337**,
77	and deliberately skewing to 32.5% technical **354**. Same gates, same vocabulary, same
78	budget — only the register allocation changes.
79	
80	## Transfer
81	- **To the hidden target:** the criterion keys on *content* word n-grams, not on the
82	  dev sample's surface formatting (WikiText spacing / `@.@`), so it transfers to the
83	  disjoint hidden sample of the *same* four-register domain rather than memorizing
84	  the dev set.
85	- **To other targets:** the method is target-agnostic — swap `multi_dev.npy` for any
86	  disclosed target sample and re-run; the per-register split + equal-allocation
87	  round-robin generalizes to any known target mixture (change the register detector
88	  and the allocation weights).
89	- **To larger budgets/models:** balancing matters *most* when the budget is far
90	  smaller than the pool (starvation is acute). As the budget grows toward the pool
91	  size the balanced and global selections converge, so the gap should shrink with a
92	  larger token budget — a further falsifiable prediction.

Under the\nfixed 12M-token budget, held-out perplexity on the *broad, equal-parts* HQ target\n(encyclopedic + general web prose + news + technical Q&A) is minimized by two\ncompounding moves:\n\n1. **Target-matched selection** — keep documents whose *content* distribution\n   resembles the disclosed target, via DSIR-style importance weighting (per-feature\n   `log P_target − log P_pool` on a common word uni/bi-gram vocabulary), and drop\n   boilerplate/duplicates.\n2. **Register balancing** — allocate the budget *equally* across the target's four\n   registers using one importance classifier per register, instead of ranking by a\n   single global target score. A single global score collapses the budget onto the\n   one register that is easiest to separate from pool junk (news), starving the\n   others; because the target is equal-parts, the starved registers dominate the\n   average loss.\n\n## Mechanism / prediction (observable *other* than final perplexity)\nMechanism: perplexity = exp(mean next-token loss) averaged over four equal target\nquarters. A tiny 30M model on 12M tokens is capacity/data limited, so each quarter's\nloss falls with the share of *in-register* training tokens and saturates; the mean\nis dominated by whichever quarter is most starved. Matching the training register\nmix to the target's equal mix therefore minimizes the mean.\n\nConcretely predicted, measurable **without** looking at the final score:\n\n- **Budget-slice composition (measured, no training needed).** Matching is by\n  *content* word n-grams via four per-register DSIR classifiers, and the round-robin\n  fills the 12M budget **25/25/25/25 in that classifier space by construction** —\n  `curate.py` prints these est-token shares every run.
