# Bicorder synthetic data analysis
This directory concerns a synthetic data analysis conducted with the Protocol Bicorder.
## Procedure
See [`prompts.md`](prompts.md) for a collection of prompts used in this process. SHOULD THESE BE INTEGRATED BELOW?
* Document chunking: Gathering raw data from protocol-focused texts, including the draft of the author's book, _The Protocol Reader_, _As for Protocols_, and _Das Protokoll_; produces a CSV list of protocols
- The dataset includes some LLM hallucinations---that is, protocols not in the texts---but the hallucinations are often acceptable examples and so some have been retained (`data/output-raw.csv`, n=776)
- Cleaning: Manual review of the protocols listed to remove overly broad or inappropriate entries (`data/output-edit.csv`, n=TKTK)
* Dataset elaboration: Expand the dataset with LLM background knowledge
- Add analyst personas: a control analyst with an academic "view from nowhere" and two others directly involved in the protocol
- Cleaning: Manual review of the elaborated protocols and analysts for quality and correctness, editing or removing problematic entries
* Bicorder diagnostic
- Automated diagnoses
- For each protocol
- Start a thread; for each gradient
- extract term explanation
- pick a number, add to csv, followed by comma
- Manual audit of analyses: TKTK
- Test different models
- Perhaps use a simplified template without citations and descriptions to reduce tokens, and just provide those materials once
- Iterate on bicorder design?
* Diagnostic results analysis
- TKTK need to identify relevant tests
- Correlations: Which gradients seem to travel together?
