Restructure the presentation from 19 to ~28 sectioned slides, front-loaded on context per the proof-of-concept framing (open -> motivation -> data engine -> imputation mechanics -> Louizos foundation + our translation -> proof of concept -> close), targeting a 15/8 split of a ~23 min talk. - Comparison is now four methods, two families: informed L0 and L1 (convex sparse) vs random+reweight and survey-weight sampling (per l0-paper PR #10). - Add KaTeX for rigorous math; new AutoFitMath wrapper scales equations to fit their boxes so nothing overflows during a live talk; 3-term loss is multi-line. - Differentiate the two equation slides: slide 18 is the training objective, slide 22 is the shared evaluation loss with a four-method "held fixed" panel. - New PE-styled diagram components: GeographyHierarchy, FactAnatomy, FrameAnatomy, DonorFusion, RegimeQuantileViz, ScaleLadder, HardConcreteGate, TranslationTable. - ScaleLadder shows generation growth (survey spine -> 30M) then a prune step that drops below the generate-big peak. - Embed speaker headshot on the cover slide (optional headshot on SpeakerInfo). - Add TALKING_POINTS.md: detailed per-slide bullets for the first half; the results half is stubbed and deferred until the final 4-way sweep numbers land. Verified: typecheck, lint, and production build all pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Update the presentation slides to the final four-way sweep (run 4way-l1-cap1, c=1): - Replace the result placeholders with the generated plots: f1_frontier (main result, slide 23), f3_generalization_gap (slide 24), and f6_operability (added to the operability slide). Add a Figure component that renders the PNGs at full size with no surrounding box, so the plots read large instead of small-in-a-card. - Fix the calibration-objective note to the production cap c=1 (was c=10); drop the "final sweep still pending" caveat on the experiment-design slide. - Geography slide: label the national level as the United States and note the same nesting applies to any country with its own subnational divisions. - "Four methods" slide: drop the two group labels (survey-weight fits then samples, so "sample, then fit" was wrong for it) and sharpen the ordering wording. - Operability slide: replace the three heavy cards with a compact left-accent list and widen the figure column so the graph leads. Talking points (TALKING_POINTS.md) left uncommitted for author review. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…; recompile PDF Talking points (presentation/TALKING_POINTS.md): - Align numbers and framing to the final four-way sweep (run 4way-l1-cap1, c=1). - Slide 18: explain the L2 penalty acts on weight magnitude, which keeps population mass spread across records and the effective sample size high. - Restructure the second half (slides 20-28) into the first half's KEY MESSAGE / SAY / TRANSITION format. - Frame classical calibrators (GREG, IPF, raking, balanced sampling) as related work and robustness checks, not baselines. Deck (presentation/slides/l0-ima-2026.tsx): - Tension slide: drop "calibrate" (the dataset is calibrated, not too large to calibrate). - Arch slide: 4.6k -> 4,393 active US targets, matching the paper. - Main frontier: state the median/mean split (baselines overtake on the median; informed L0 keeps the lower mean throughout). Paper (paper/sections/future_work.tex, paper/main.pdf): - Reframe future work for consistency with the expanded literature review: classical calibration methods are robustness checks on the categorical-margin subsets where their assumptions hold, not a full-surface GREG/IPF benchmark. Recompile main.pdf. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
`npm run export:pdf` drives headless Chromium over each `?slide=N` view, screenshots it at 1080p (2x), and assembles one PDF page per slide at the standard 16:9 size. Screenshots (not print-to-PDF) keep the output identical to the on-screen render (KaTeX, gradients, custom layout). Slide count is read from slides/config.ts (override with SLIDE_COUNT); SKIP_BUILD=1 reuses an existing build. One-time setup: `npm i -D playwright pdf-lib && npx playwright install chromium`.

"Ledger" is the public name of the arch-data fact store, so the deck and speaker notes now say Ledger everywhere the product is named (the literal arch-data repo name is unchanged). Renames the ArchSlide component to LedgerSlide and updates the data-engine section, the Ledger slide, FactAnatomy, and the talking points. The paper already uses Ledger.

Presentation — L0 regularization for subnational microsimulation calibration (IMA 2026)
A standalone talk deck for the paper, plus speaker notes. ~23-minute talk, deliberately front-loaded on context because the paper results are a proof of concept.

f1), generalization (f3), reading results honestly / operability (f6)Data alignment
All numbers and result figures reflect the final four-way sweep (
4way-l1-cap1, production loss cap c=1): informed L0 vs L1 vs random+reweight vs survey-weight. The narrative leads with the median; the mean is reported as tail-sensitive. Classical calibrators (GREG/IPF/raking/balanced sampling) are framed as related work, not baselines.Static export
No built-in PDF/PPTX export today (web deck, not reveal.js). PDF is easy to add via a headless-browser script that prints each
?slide=Nto one page; PPTX would be image-per-slide (flat slides, not editable native objects).
