Topics — What a work is about. Nucleation holds whatever reading the owner files here, whether or not an Anthology of the SOTA topic could also hold it; instruction for ML practice belongs to the anthology (ADR-048). The words are seeded from the clusters the reading-time triage of 2026-09-25 found, and grow by decision.
Learning and conditioning — how organisms learn from contingencies and consequences — Pavlovian and instrumental conditioning, reinforcement and reward learning in brains, habit and goal-directed control, behaviour analysis and relational responding. Not machine learning, which is learning-theory or the anthology (ADR-025).

| ARG-027 | The record’s iterated-learning readings show that pragmatic stances and footing are stabilized by transmission | CLAIM-068 extends iterated learning “to speaker footing and communicative conventions”. Rejected: the record’s readings bear on lexical, structural and functional transmission, and none measures an interpersonal stance, a footing or a speech-act function along a chain. For evaluative stance CASE-068 is chain evidence, a separate line not filed here; for footing there is still no study. | Rejected |
