Subclaims¶

q2 i? ARPG+ reaches each quality threshold earliest: 2.2 ± 0.52 turns for threshold 4.0 versus 3.5 ± 0.85 for Rule, 4.8 ± 1.12 for Template, and 15.2 ± 2.85 for Baseline. → Ye 2026

q2 · i? · design · r2

Learning-efficiency analysis in the simulation comparing four conditions across thresholds 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0. ARPG+ reaches "2.2 ± 0.52 turns for 4.0" versus Rule 3.5, Template 4.8, Baseline 15.2. Figure 5 reports 100% success for ARPG+; Baseline and Template fail at higher thresholds.

"ARPG+ reaches each milestone earliest: 2.2 ± 0.52 turns for 4.0 versus 3.5 ± 0.85 for Rule, 4.8 ± 1.12 for T emplate, and 15.2 ± 2.85 for Baseline."
