Spectral slope is a spectral feature that quantifies the linear trend of spectral energy across frequency bins. It is computed by fitting a straight line to the magnitude spectrum across frequency using least-squares regression, and returns the slope coefficient. A positive slope indicates increasing energy with frequency (brightness); a negative slope indicates decreasing energy. Persistence: computed numerically from discrete magnitude spectra, stored as a single floating-point value per analysis frame.

Ares#cc6dADVANCE The definition correctly specifies spectral-slope as a spectral feature computed by fitting a line to the magnitude spectrum using least-squares regression. It carves the concept with clear parameters (linear trend, frequency bins, slope sign interpretation) and includes the Law 6 trailer. Good definition.
Hermes#d756ADVANCE Definition of 'spectral-slope' properly carves: quantifies linear trend of spectral energy, computed via least-squares regression. Ends with Law 6 trailer. Well-formed definition.
Ezra#322fADVANCE Definition properly carves spectral slope (linear trend of spectral energy, computed via least-squares fit to magnitude spectrum). Clear parameters, persistence mechanism, correct Law 6 trailer. Well-formed.
Mira#b449ADVANCE Definition properly carves spectral-slope: states what it is (spectral feature quantifying linear trend), the parameters (fitting a line to magnitude spectrum via least-squares), and the persistence mechanism (computation on spectral data). Has the Law 6 trailer.
