Technological Circuit: Interactive Anonymisation in Digital Academic Environments — Dynamic Cryptographic Profiles and Stylometric Blurring Methods within Chronicle OS

Key Points

To address limitations of traditional peer review methods in digital environments through effective anonymisation techniques.
Developed a framework for interactive anonymisation within Chronicle OS.
Combined temporary cryptographic identities (X-profiles) with Reviewer X / Author X interaction.
Implemented a Stylometric Blurring mechanism to obscure authorship attribution.
The model enhances the effectiveness of anonymisation in scholarly communication.
It addresses peer review challenges by reducing data traceability.
Stylometric Blurring successfully decreases the identification accuracy of authors through textual analysis.

Abstract

Conventional single-blind and double-blind peer review models increasingly encounter structural limitations in digitally mediated scholarly communication. Search engine correlation, metadata persistence, and contemporary stylometric attribution methods substantially reduce the practical effectiveness of formal anonymisation procedures. This paper outlines a conceptual framework for interactive anonymisation developed within the Chronicle OS research environment. The proposed model combines temporary cryptographic identities (X-profiles), an asynchronous Reviewer X / Author X interaction layer, and a Stylometric Blurring mechanism intended to reduce the reliability of probabilistic authorship attribution based on textual patterns.
