1.2 — Nl Brute

The key algorithmic innovation is in the enumeration stage: a that generates patterns in linear time relative to corpus size, independent of vocabulary size for fixed ( L ).

NL Brute 1.2 demonstrates that brute-force enumeration of linguistic patterns, when combined with entropy-based pruning and parallelization, is computationally practical for mid-sized corpora and achieves near-perfect recall. It serves as a valuable baseline and discovery tool for tasks where exhaustive pattern coverage is required. The framework is available at https://github.com/nl-brute/nlbrute1.2 .
