Apply codex round-27 narrow fixes; Phase 4 prose v2.1
Codex round 27 returned Minor Revision: 10/11 Major + 14/15 Minor
CLOSED. Two narrow residuals applied:
1. §V-F line 99 'all three candidate classifiers' replaced with
'all three candidate checks' with explicit enumeration
(the inherited box rule, the K=3 hard label, and the
prevalence-calibrated reverse-anchor cut). Keeps the K=3
hard label explicitly descriptive rather than operational.
2. Close-out checklist's stale '~235 words' abstract claim
updated to the verified 243-244 word count.
Deferred to manuscript-assembly time (not blockers for Phase 5
cross-AI peer review):
- §II [42]-[44] citation finalisation (placeholders are
transparent in the current draft state).
- Internal draft notes and close-out checklists (these
explicitly help reviewers track the convergence cycle).
- Manuscript-level lint pass (last step before submission
packaging).
Closure summary across 7 codex rounds (21-27):
- Empirical: ALL Major + Minor findings CLOSED on the
§III/§IV/Phase 4 substantive content.
- Packaging: 2 OPEN items (§II citations, internal notes)
intentionally deferred to manuscript-assembly time.
Phase 5 readiness: substantively YES. The §III v6 + §IV v3.2 +
Phase 4 v2.1 is converged for cross-AI peer review.

Abstract trim: 253 -> 245 words (within IEEE Access 250-word target)
Six minor edits to reduce word count: - 'a YOLOv11 detector localizes signatures' -> 'YOLOv11 localizes signatures' - 'filed in Taiwan over 2013-2023' -> 'Taiwan audit reports (2013-2023)' - 'statistical analysis is scoped to the Big-4 sub-corpus (437 CPAs, 150,442 signatures)' -> 'analysis is scoped to the Big-4 sub-corpus (437 CPAs; 150,442 signatures)' - 'Wilson 95% upper bound 1.45%' -> 'Wilson upper bound 1.45%' - 'cross-scope check (n = 686) preserves the K=3 + box-rule Spearman convergence with drift 0.007' -> 'check (n = 686) preserves the K=3 + box-rule Spearman convergence (drift 0.007)' All numerical anchors preserved. Phase 4 prose v2 now within IEEE Access 250-word abstract limit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> EOF |

Apply codex round-26 corrections to Phase 4 prose v2
Codex round 26 returned Major Revision on Phase 4 v1: 9 Major
findings + 12 Minor + reviewer-attack vulnerabilities. v2
applies all flagged corrections.
Abstract changes:
- "Three independent feature-derived scores" -> "Three
feature-derived scores ... not statistically independent
because all three are functions of the same descriptor
pair". Names the operational output as the inherited
five-way classifier.
- Trimmed from 277 to ~245 words to stay within IEEE Access
250-word limit while keeping all numerical anchors.
§I Introduction:
- Line 29 cross-ref §III-D -> §III-G through §III-J
(§III-D was wrong; the methodology lives in §III-G/I/J).
- Big-4 scope claim narrowed: "neither any single firm pooled
alone nor the broader full-dataset variant rejects" -> "none
of the narrower comparison scopes tested in Script 32
rejects" with explicit enumeration (Firm A pooled alone;
Firms B+C+D pooled; all non-Firm-A pooled).
- "Three independent feature-derived scores" -> "Three
feature-derived scores ... not statistically independent".
- Contribution 4 "not at narrower scopes" -> "not in the
narrower comparison scopes tested".
- Contribution 8 "demonstrating pipeline reproducibility at
multiple scopes" -> narrowed to "K=3 + box-rule
rank-convergence reproduces at full n=686; does not
re-validate operational thresholds / LOOO / five-way / pixel
identity at the broader scope".
- "external validation" softened to "annotation-free
validation" in methodological-safeguards paragraph.
- "(5)–(8)" pipeline stage list updated with corrected
section references.
- "Published box rule" -> "inherited Paper A box rule".
- Added Big-4 pixel-identity per-firm breakdown (145/8/107/2)
in §I body for completeness.
§II Related Work:
- Replaced placeholder with explicit defer-to-master statement:
v3.20.0 §II is inherited substantively unchanged in the master
manuscript; only the LOOO addition is reproduced here.
- "[add citation]" replaced with placeholder references
[42] Stone 1974, [43] Geisser 1975, [44] Vehtari et al. 2017
explicitly marked as draft references to be finalised at
copy-edit time.
- LOOO addition reframed: composition-sensitivity band on the
mixture characterisation, not on the operational classifier.
§V Discussion:
- §V-B "v4.0 inherits and confirms" softened to "v4.0 inherits
this signature-level reading and remains consistent with it
(no signature-level diagnostic was newly run in v4)".
- §V-B "some CPAs are templated, some are hand-leaning, some
are mixed" rewritten as component-membership wording: "some
CPAs' observed signatures place their per-CPA means in the
templated/mixed/hand-leaning region of the descriptor plane".
- §V-B within-CPA unimodality explanation softened from
"produces" to "can be jointly consistent" with explicit
§III-G cross-ref.
- §V-C Firm A byte-level provenance: 145 pixel-identical
signatures verified in Script 40; 50 partners / 35 cross-year
explicitly inherited from v3 / Script 28 not regenerated in
v4 spikes.
- §V-C "anchors §IV-H's positive-anchor miss-rate" -> "is the
largest of the four Big-4 subsets, with full anchor pooling
Firm A 145, Firm B 8, Firm C 107, Firm D 2".
- §V-E "published box rule" -> "inherited Paper A box rule";
"produce the same per-CPA ranking" -> "broadly concordant
rankings, with residual non-Firm-A disagreement".
- §V-G limitations expanded from 7 to 12 items: restored the
5 v3.20.0 inherited limitations (transferred ImageNet
features, HSV stamp-removal artifacts, longitudinal scan
confounds, source-exemplar misattribution, legal
interpretation).
- §V-G scope limitation: removed unsupported "narrower or
broader scopes" full-dataset dip-test claim.
§VI Conclusion:
- Names operational output: "inherited Paper A five-way
per-signature classifier with worst-case document-level
aggregation".
- "Cross-scope pipeline reproducibility" -> "K=3 + box-rule
rank-convergence reproduces at full n=686; does not
re-validate operational thresholds, LOOO, five-way classifier,
or pixel-identity at the broader scope".
- Future-work direction 3 explicitly qualifies the within-Big-4
contrast as "accountant-level descriptive features of the K=3
mixture, not validated mechanism-level claims and not
currently linked to audit-quality outcomes".
Round 26 closure post-v2:
- All 9 Major findings: CLOSED in v2 prose body.
- All 12 Minor findings: CLOSED in v2 prose body.
- Phase 5 readiness: should now move from Partial to Yes
pending codex round 27 verification.
Provenance: codex round-26 confirmed 17/17 numerical claims in
Phase 4 v1 (only finding #5, the scope-test wording, was an
overclaim rather than a numerical error). v2 keeps all confirmed
numerics and narrows only the scope-test wording.

Add Phase 4 prose draft v1 (Abstract + I + II + V + VI)
Phase 4 first-pass draft replacing the v3.20.0 Abstract,
§I Introduction, §II Related Work, §V Discussion, and §VI
Conclusion blocks with the Big-4 reframed v4.0 prose. Single
consolidated file at paper/v4/paper_a_prose_v4_phase4.md.
Structure:
Abstract (~235 words, IEEE Access target <= 250)
§I Introduction (8-item contributions list updated for v4)
§II Related Work (mostly inherited; LOOO citation added)
§V Discussion (7 sub-sections: A-G covering distinct-problem
framing, accountant-level multimodality,
Firm A as templated-end case study, K=2
firm-mass conflation, K=3 reproducible shape,
three-score internal-consistency, pixel-
identity + inter-CPA validation, limitations)
§VI Conclusion + Future Work (4 future directions)
Key reframing decisions baked into the prose:
- Abstract leads with Big-4 scope + dip-test multimodality +
K=3 reproducibility + three-score convergence + 0% miss
rate + full-dataset robustness.
- §I positions the Big-4 sub-corpus scope as the
methodologically privileged calibration unit ("smallest
tested scope at which a finite-mixture model is
statistically supportable").
- §I-Contribution-4: Big-4 scope as substantive methodological
finding (was v3.x "percentile-anchored operational
threshold").
- §I-Contribution-5: K=3 mixture as descriptive (was v3.x
"distributional characterisation" framing).
- §I-Contribution-6: three-score convergent internal-
consistency (NEW in v4).
- §I-Contribution-8: full-dataset robustness as light
secondary scope (NEW in v4).
- §V-D: explicit "K=2 is firm-mass driven; K=3 is
reproducible in shape" framing — preempts the LOOO
reviewer attack vector codex round 23 first flagged.
- §V-G Limitations: seven explicit limitations including no
signature-level hand-signed ground truth, pixel-identity
conservative subset, MC band not separately v4-validated.
- §VI Future Work: four directions including a Paper B
placeholder for audit-quality companion analysis.
The technical §III v6 + §IV v3.2 are the foundation; this Phase
4 draft aligns the narrative with the codex-converged
methodology and results.
6 close-out items flagged at end of file (word-count check,
contribution count, LOOO citation, limitations grouping, Paper B
cross-ref, draft note stripping).
