# Authors and Maintainers

## Independent Project Notice

RealMythos is developed by its authors in their personal capacity and personal time.

Institutional affiliations, if listed below, are provided only for author identification. They do not imply legal affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement, review, approval, or responsibility by the authors' employers, universities, laboratories, funding bodies, or other institutions.

Unless explicitly stated in a future release, all project statements, documentation, datasets, models, and software artifacts represent the RealMythos project only, not any affiliated institution.

| Name | Institution / Organization | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Zongjie Li | HKUST | Project lead |
| Liwen Wang | HKUST | Dataset construction |
| Chaozheng Wang | CUHK | Model training and evaluation |
| Zimo Ji | HKUST | Reproducibility infrastructure |

The role column highlights each contributor's primary responsibility. All contributors helped improve the data-collection framework through iterative development, review, and feedback, and the Stage 1 release involved substantial manual inspection and quality checking across the pipeline.
