Activation Tagging
. Now, I'm not kidding when I say, it sounds like something a rejected Borg collective might doodle on its flowchart diagrams.
Basically – and I want to preface this with a generous spoonful of understatement – Activation Tagging is an insanely fiddly, almost paranoid, statistical trick used primarily in the wonderfully nerdy field of computational所得。 俚语 (That's fancy-sounding for word prediction , by the way! It’s basically how autocorrect and fancy writing software try to figure out what you meant before you actually typed it. Here's a breakdown that won’t immediately induce a migraine: The Core Idea: Imagine you're trying to guess what someone will say next, given what they already said . Instead of just looking at the immediately preceding word – like how a simple autocorrect might do – Activation Tagging looks at… EVERYTHING. Every damn past-ish thing that’s even remotely related to what the current text is currently saying. The Tags (Hence the Name!): We attach these weird, numerical "activation tags" to every possible preceding bit of the text. Think of it like marking everything down with a little sticky note saying, 'Hey! That might be relevant here later!' The trick is that many things are going to get an awfully small activation tag - and we only care about the
