Berkla, D.: Measurement-Layer Audit Protocol for Directionality-Adjacent Markers

How should directionality-adjacent claims be measured across a heterogeneous scientific literature without collapsing distinct phenomena into a single thematic category? This study addresses that question by introducing a conservative measurement-layer audit protocol for two explicitly defined markers — entropy production and irreversibility — and applying it to a fixed 12-study cohort. The completed output is a 24-item study x marker matrix built from accepted records produced through machine e
