ScholaWrite-Augmented

Process Integrity Benchmarks for Revision-Tracked Scholarly Writing

Dataset Description

ScholaWrite-Augmented is a revision-tracked scholarly writing dataset with annotated external insertion events, designed for process-integrity research. It augments the ScholaWrite seed dataset with synthetic injections at multiple sophistication levels, models boundary erosion over revision trajectories, and provides span-level annotations with explicit ambiguity flags.

This dataset does NOT label origin (human vs AI). Instead, it studies whether the observable revision process is consistent with iterative human authorship, or whether it exhibits evidence of process-inconsistent external insertion.

Dataset Summary

Statistic	Value
Documents	5
Total Revisions	126,246
Injections	237
Trajectory States	COLD (50%), WARM (33%), ASSIMILATED (16%)

Key Concepts

Concept	Description
Injection Level	Sophistication of insertion: naive (no context), topical (domain only), contextual (full local context)
Trajectory State	Boundary erosion over revisions: COLD (unedited), WARM (partial integration), ASSIMILATED (full integration)
Ambiguity Flag	Confidence in boundary determination: NONE, LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH
Causal Signatures	Process metrics: repair locality, resource coupling, biometric plausibility

Usage

Loading the Dataset

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("Writerslogic/scholawrite-augmented")

# Access documents
for doc in dataset["train"]:
    print(doc["doc_id"], doc["text"][:100])

Loading Raw Files

import json

# Load augmented documents
with open("data/documents.jsonl") as f:
    documents = [json.loads(line) for line in f]

# Load span-level annotations
with open("data/annotations.jsonl") as f:
    annotations = [json.loads(line) for line in f]

Intended Use

• Research on process integrity and revision-trace analysis
• Benchmarking methods that surface revision discontinuities
• Studying boundary erosion and ambiguity in hybrid writing
• Evaluating causal signatures for process verification

Non-Use / Out-of-Scope

This dataset MUST NOT be used for:

• Punitive or automated enforcement decisions
• Sole determination of authorship or tool use
• High-stakes decisions without human review
• Reverse identification of authors, papers, or institutions
• Surveillance of writers without consent
• Any framing as "AI detection"

Ethical Considerations

This dataset is designed to study process integrity, not to enable surveillance or enforcement. Key principles:

1. No origin labels: We do not label text as "human" or "AI"
2. Process over product: We assess revision traces, not final text properties
3. Ambiguity is valid: Indeterminate cases are expected, not errors
4. Assistance is compatible: Legitimate tool use with iterative integration is process-consistent

See ETHICS.md for full ethical considerations.
