Style encoder (BOM-30)
Authorship style embeddings (Amendment 24): the time-locked model fine-tuned with a contrastive
objective so that passages by the same author land close together. 297m/style.pt and
590m/style.pt are the encoders on the 297M and 590M backbones (style_embed.train.StyleEncoder
in the GitHub repository; load_encoder(path, cfg, "base") or "mid"), with their training
logs. Benchmark: 297M 0.839 right author, 0.500 false matches (benchmark_297m.json); 590M 0.839,
0.628 (benchmark_590m.json).
About
Part of an open, pre-registered study of the authorship, borrowing and dating of the
earliest Book of Mormon text (https://github.com/lifehug/book-of-mormon-authorship; pre-registration https://osf.io/6ugxc/). The project does not argue for or
against divine inspiration. Everything is published so it can be checked and redone; the corpus
texts we agreed to keep private are not, and the repository's docs/replication.md gives the
steps to obtain the same access.
