Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Dracunculus medinesis is a waterborne parasite that has afflicted human populations for millennia. It is spread to new water bodies by the travel activities of the humans it affects. This study analyzes the relationship between G uinea worm incidence and its proximity to features of the built and natural environment to identify any apparent relationships. The study examines the T illabéri region in the country N iger where there was a reemergence in the number of cases of G uinea worm in 2003. It is found that population centers with G uinea worm infected individuals are often within two kilometers of nomadic herding routes.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

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.
