simulation

noun 4 senses

the act of imitating the behavior of some situation or some process by means of something suitably analogous (especially for the purpose of study or personnel training)

simulation is French for simulation, and every measurement below was made on that English word. Definitions come from English WordNet; Open Multilingual WordNet supplies the French headword, not a French definition.

This is the tokenizer splitting text, not the model understanding it.

These sit just outside the closest neighbours in panel 3, and no dictionary lists any of them as related to simulation. That gap is the model’s own learned association.
