Authorial language model: Aeschylus (Sphragis-Metre verse)

One of 17 authorial language models (ALMs) for the Sphragis-Metre Ancient Greek authorship-attribution benchmark, following Huang, Murakami and Grieve (2025), "Attributing authorship via the perplexity of authorial language models", PLoS ONE 20(7): e0327081. Each model is a full further-pretraining of `allenai/OLMo-1B-hf` (revision aee7752d9c08ee4775e9b0091426d8410e8f6a89) on one author's training rows only; a row is attributed to whichever of the 17 models finds it least surprising.

This model was trained on Aeschylus: 1,600 rows, 37,707 scored tokens from the verse_1 training split. Its base model and the number of epochs were both chosen by coordinate ascent on validation attribution, so a model here may start from the vanilla OLMo-1B or from the Greek-adapted one.

Unlike Huang and colleagues' fixed 100 epochs, training length here is chosen by held-out evidence -- and on attribution itself rather than on this author's own perplexity, because what attribution needs is not how well a model fits its author but how much better it fits than the others.

Scoring

Score a sentence exactly as it was trained, and compare the per-token negative log-likelihood against the other sixteen models. Together the seventeen models reach 56.81 test macro-F1 on verse1, 76.15 on verse5, 80.99 on verse10 and 72.88 on verse50.

Licence and provenance

The base model is Apache-2.0. The training text comes from the benchmark, whose sources carry mixed licences including CC BY-NC-SA material, so this derived model is released as other: see the dataset's LICENSES.md before reuse.
