gbanyan 9b11f03548 Paper A v3: full rewrite for IEEE Access with three-method convergence 
Major changes from v2:

Terminology:
- "digitally replicated" -> "non-hand-signed" throughout (per partner v3
  feedback and to avoid implicit accusation)
- "Firm A near-universal non-hand-signing" -> "replication-dominated"
  (per interview nuance: most but not all Firm A partners use replication)

Target journal: IEEE TAI -> IEEE Access (per NCKU CSIE list)

New methodological sections (III.G-III.L + IV.D-IV.G):
- Three convergent threshold methods (KDE antimode + Hartigan dip test /
  Burgstahler-Dichev McCrary / EM-fitted Beta mixture + logit-GMM
  robustness check)
- Explicit unit-of-analysis discussion (signature vs accountant)
- Accountant-level 2D Gaussian mixture (BIC-best K=3 found empirically)
- Pixel-identity validation anchor (no manual annotation needed)
- Low-similarity negative anchor + Firm A replication-dominated anchor

New empirical findings integrated:
- Firm A signature cosine UNIMODAL (dip p=0.17) - long left tail = minority
  hand-signers
- Full-sample cosine MULTIMODAL but not cleanly bimodal (BIC prefers 3-comp
  mixture) - signature-level is continuous quality spectrum
- Accountant-level mixture trimodal (C1 Deloitte-heavy 139/141,
  C2 other Big-4, C3 smaller firms). 2-comp crossings cos=0.945, dh=8.10
- Pixel-identity anchor (310 pairs) gives perfect recall at all cosine
  thresholds
- Firm A anchor rates: cos>0.95=92.5%, dual-rule cos>0.95 AND dh<=8=89.95%

New discussion section V.B: "Continuous-quality spectrum vs discrete-
behavior regimes" - the core interpretive contribution of v3.

gbanyan 939a348da4 Add Paper A (IEEE TAI) complete draft with Firm A-calibrated dual-method classification 
Paper draft includes all sections (Abstract through Conclusion), 36 references,
and supporting scripts. Key methodology: Cosine similarity + dHash dual-method
verification with thresholds calibrated against known-replication firm (Firm A).

Includes:
- 8 section markdown files (paper_a_*.md)
- Ablation study script (ResNet-50 vs VGG-16 vs EfficientNet-B0)
- Recalibrated classification script (84,386 PDFs, 5-tier system)
- Figure generation and Word export scripts
- Citation renumbering script ([1]-[36])
- Signature analysis pipeline (12 steps)
- YOLO extraction scripts

Three rounds of AI review completed (GPT-5.4, Claude Opus 4.6, Gemini 3 Pro).
