Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract — Researchers often have access to a variety of different high-performance computer (HPC) systems in different administrative domains, possibly across a wide-area network. Consequently, the security infrastructure becomes an important component of an overlay metacomputer: a user-level aggregation of HPC systems. The Grid Security Infrastructure (GSI) uses a sophisticated approach based on proxies and certification authorities. However, GSI requires a substantial amount of installation support and it requires human-negotiated organization-toorganization security agreements. In contrast, the Trellis Security Infrastructure (TSI) is layered on top of the widely-deployed Secure Shell (SSH) and systems administrators only need to provide unprivileged accounts to the users. The contribution of the TSI approach is in demonstrating that a single sign-on (SSO) system can be implemented without requiring a new security infrastructure. We describe the design of the TSI and provide a tutorial of some of the tools created to make the TSI easier to use. I.

Not 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.
