Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Quantification of the amount and distribution of adipose tissue is integral to the study and treatment of human obesity. Complex measurement tools such as magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography directly measure adipose and lean tissues in vivo and provide valuable insight into the mechanisms that link body composition to disease. However, these measures are impractical in clinical and field settings. Therefore simple anthropometric measures such as waist circumference, Body Mass Index or bio-electrical impedance analysis are used as surrogate measures to identify relationships between body composition and increased health risk in clinical practice. This chapter examines common research and field methods of measuring body composition and how they contribute to our understanding of the relationship between obesity and increased health risk in adults and youth.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
