Bibliographic record
Abstract
par Laurent Busseau, Historien sans Frontière L'histoire de la police d'enquête représente un champ de recherche peu exploré au Québec, principalement pour la période charnière située entre le XIX e et le XX e siècle.Pourtant, la police « moderne » au Québec apparaît dès 1890, grâce à l'initiative d'un enquêteur hors pair et innovateur pour son temps.Portrait d'un détective très spécial : Silas Huntington Carpenter.Silas Huntington Carpenter : un détective professionnel (1882-1896) Né le 29 janvier 1854 à Brownsburg dans le comté d'Argenteuil, Silas Huntington Carpenter 1 est simple constable à la Ville de Montréal en 1880, puis il gravit les échelons pour devenir sergent en 1882.Promu détective municipal de Montréal, Carpenter s'implique auprès des policiers d'expérience.Avant la fi n du XIX e siècle, la promiscuité ethnique et la précarité de la classe ouvrière provoquent l'émergence d'une nouvelle criminalité urbaine liée à la prostitution, le jeu clandestin et le trafi cdel'opiumàMontréal.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
