Structured assertion

Relation: Reproduces exactly

target
tokens per word, characters per token and fertility tax against the Mistral-derived tokenizer of nine tokenizers on seven corpora and the two preamble protocol textsValues recomputed.
protocol
whitespace-split words; characters counted with whitespace; no special tokens; the same corpus order and resamplesCounting protocol.
cells matched
243 cellsValues reproduced exactly.
cells total
243 cellsValues compared.

Experimental provenance

Method and evaluation protocol
Extend the atlas with the five arms appended after the nine reference tokenizers and compare every reference value with the earlier atlas; the run aborts on any difference above 1e-9.
Dataset
Seven corpora and two preamble protocol texts; four corpora are restricted.Version: unspecified · Access: restricted
Reported results
243 of 243 values equal; largest absolute difference 0.0.
Uncertainty and replication
Exact comparison of point values; no sampling.
Limitations
The same code path and tokenizer files as the earlier atlas; this checks the rig, not the tokenizers' provenance.

Concept definitions

Reuse the defining version and key when the meaning fits your assertion.

Reproduces exactly

Recomputing the target under the protocol yields values equal to the target's in cells_matched of cells_total cells.
