| # Candidate and control models (BOM-28) |
|
|
| One fine-tuned copy of the time-locked model per candidate author's sample (`cand__...`) and per |
| control group (`ctrl__...`), at 125M (`pilot/`), 297M (`base/`) and 590M (`mid/`), as scored on the |
| sealed Book of Mormon text in the blind run (Amendment 30). Each `.pt` is a state dict for the |
| base model's architecture (load with `torch.load(path, weights_only=True)` into the matching |
| time-locked model); the `.json` beside it is its training record and held-out scores (numbers |
| only). `alm_candidates_<size>.json` is each size's validation, `alm_candidates_plan.json` the |
| units. Some candidate samples come from Joseph Smith Papers transcripts, which are not published; |
| the models are (owner's decision, 2026-11-09). |
|
|
| Folders: `pilot/`, `base/`, `mid/` are the registered run's models. `a43/<size>/` are the models |
| retrained after Book of Mormon quotations were removed from the candidate samples (Amendment 43, |
| post hoc; the paper's corrected rankings). `a44/` holds the models of Joseph Smith's pooled |
| non-revelatory writing (Amendment 44) and `a44/a45/` the equal-dose slice models (Amendment 45), |
| each named `<unit>[_slice<k>]_<size>.pt`. |

| ## 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. |
