ACADEMIC RECORD

All publications below are timestamped on Zenodo before the record was set on April 20, 2026. This proves the intellectual framework existed independently of and prior to the data. Manuscripts are also under active peer review at Analysis and Mind (Oxford University Press).

AI Disclosure Statement

AI language models were used as development tools during this project — analogous to a programmer using a compiler, or an astronomer using a telescope. AI did not design the DAG-OR classification framework, select the data sources, conceive of the Modulign Standard, or author the published papers. AI assisted with code syntax and prose editing. The intellectual framework, system architecture, source selection, and all strategic decisions were made solely by Vincent Gonzalez. The record is his achievement.
