gbanyan dbe2f676bf Add Gemini partner red-pen regression audit on v3.19.0
paper/gemini_partner_redpen_audit_v3_19_0.md: focused audit evaluating
whether the partner's hand-marked red-pen review of v3.17 (4 themes,
11 specific items) has been adequately addressed in the current
v3.19.0 draft. Cleaned from raw output (CLI 429 retry noise stripped).

Result: 8/11 RESOLVED, 3/11 N/A (the underlying text/analysis was
entirely removed in v3.18+: accountant-level BD/McCrary, the 139/32
C1/C2 split, and ZH/EN dual-language scaffolding). 0 remain
UNRESOLVED, PARTIAL, or merely IMPROVED.

Themes:
- Theme 1 (citation reality): RESOLVED via reference_verification_v3.md
  and the [5] Hadjadj -> Kao & Wen correction in v3.18.
- Theme 2 (AI-sounding prose): RESOLVED at every flagged spot — A1
  stipulation rewritten as cross-year pair-existence with three concrete
  not-guaranteed conditions; conservative structural-similarity reduced
  to one literal sentence; IV-G validation lead-in now explicitly
  motivates each subsection.
- Theme 3 (ZH/EN alignment): N/A — v3.19.0 is monolingual English for
  IEEE submission; the dual-language scaffolding that produced the gap
  no longer exists.
- Theme 4 (specific numbers): all addressed — 92.6% match rate is now
  purely descriptive; 0.95 cut-off explicitly anchored on Firm A P7.5;
  Hartigan dip test correctly described as "more than one peak"; BIC
  forced-fit framing made blunt; 139/32 + accountant-level BD/McCrary
  removed.

Gemini's bottom line: "smallest residual set of polish required before
the partner re-read is empty." Manuscript is ready to send back to
partner.

PDF Signature Extraction System

Automated extraction of handwritten Chinese signatures from PDF documents using hybrid VLM + Computer Vision approach.

Quick Start

Step 1: Extract Pages from CSV

cd /Volumes/NV2/pdf_recognize
source venv/bin/activate
python extract_pages_from_csv.py

Step 2: Extract Signatures

python extract_signatures_hybrid.py

Documentation

Current Performance

Test Dataset: 5 PDF pages

  • Signatures expected: 10
  • Signatures found: 7
  • Precision: 100% (no false positives)
  • Recall: 70%

Key Features

Hybrid Approach: VLM name extraction + CV detection + VLM verification Name-Based: Signatures saved as signature_周寶蓮.png No False Positives: Name-specific verification filters out dates, text, stamps Duplicate Prevention: Only one signature per person Handles Both: PDFs with/without text layer
