EXPLORE ALL RESULTS · VISUAL FAMILY INVENTORY

46,955 active provisional families, 105,488 variants, 114,551 provisional writing occurrences. Every family and variant is searchable here. 516 reproducibly selected families have portable Yale-crop sheet previews; every family has a Mac-folder preview and the complete writing occurrence drill-down. Browse all source material classes and observations in the Mac project folder. Family resemblance and counts are machine proposals, not accepted glyph identities.

201,595 unresolved material candidates are outside the assigned-family inventory. 45,390 writing forms have recorded segmentation alternatives; uncertainty remains explicit in the authoritative ledger.

REVIEW NEEDED

6 items need review in the preserved curated card set.

Independent visual-transcription audit — v005

What original visual writing observations survive the corrected independent full-source audit, with uncertainty and Yale provenance preserved?

OPEN THE REVIEW FINDINGS AS COMPLETED

HUMAN REVIEW · AS PRESENTED WHEN CURRENT

Independent visual-transcription audit v005 — provisional

6 source-linked cards. Display images are embedded; original TIFFs and scientific records remain authoritative in the project folder.

The corrected v005 ledger retains 658,585 primary observations and 114,551 provisional writing forms in 46,955 provisional visual families. Recall, contamination, family identity and segmentation remain qualified; six saved QC groups need review.

Independent visual-transcription audit v005 — archive presentation summary

This presentation summary restates the completed v005 audit without changing its , ledger, decisions or limits.

Method

The audit reconciled observations from all 213 authoritative Yale TIFF views against source-linked material and saved QC judgments, preserving original occurrence IDs, native boxes, prior records and segmentation alternatives. It was a corrected neutral visual inventory, not a linguistic transcription.

Finding and conclusion

The sealed v005 database retains 658,585 primary observations. Of these, 114,551 are provisional writing: 98,470 high-confidence and 16,081 uncertain. The default manuscript-leaf high-confidence set has 98,240 observations. There are 46,955 provisional visual families and 105,488 variants. Full replay and SQLite checks passed with the documented external dashboard-helper freeze exception, so the engineering status is QUALIFIED_ENGINEERING_PASS_FREEZE_EXCEPTION. These are saved visual proposals, not accepted characters or a manuscript-wide writing census.

Limits

Residual artwork/parchment contamination, missed faint writing, family over-fragmentation or merging, and 338,247 preserved segmentation alternatives remain. The advisory local-vision second rater scored 43/48, below its predeclared 90% threshold. Complete recall and stable glyph identity are not established. and .
