Janiform Intra-Document Analytics for Reproducible Research

Summary: Introduces portable database files (PDbFs), janiform artifacts that remain static PDFs yet expose embedded raw data as dynamic offline HTML. LaTeX tooling preserves measurement-to-figure provenance, enabling in-document OLAP analysis and graph reproduction. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
