Overview

An experiment on decomposing language onto initially established graph-theory representation applied then onto some pre-selected transformations (commonly used context/tool related transmutes) (t1,t2,t3) then upon some layers of decomposition finding out the shared context / what we label as a handshake; for the purpose of education / others

Findings and contributions

  • Defines graphspeak as an experimental communication method whose medium is permutative graphs requiring a pre-handshake selection of sampling nodes.
  • Argues that such a language's success depends not on rigor but on empathy, framed as composing the recipient's capability with their context.
  • States planned objectives of testing deployment for kids, for cross-language generalizability, and for rigor.

Methods

  • Proposed three-layer graph sampling, conversion and decomposition scheme — Outlines Layer 0-2 steps: sampling nodes with graph theory, converting via chosen permutative formats, then decomposing and comparing similarity.
  • Three provisional 'transmute' rules for node composition (Tr1-Tr3) — Defines three temporary notational norms for combining and decomposing nodes, illustrated with car-component examples.
  • Planned pipeline of LLM querying with manual human confirmation — Proposes data flows in which LLM labeling of objects and transmutes is followed by a manual confirmation layer before stashing.
  • Proposed graph-composition game as a test and application vehicle — Describes a planned game in which players compose trees of 3-node graphs and apply preselected transmutation types.
