Abstract
The Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB) conference is the oldest and largest conference that specifically addresses bioinformatics and computational biology, i.e. interdisciplinary research that falls between computer science and biology, ISMB is distinguished from many other conferences in computational biology or artificial intelligence by an insistence that the researchers work with real molecular biology data, not theoretical examples; and from many other biological conferences by providing a forum for technical advances as they occur, which otherwise may be shunned until a firm experimental result is published. The resulting intellectual richness and cross-disciplinary diversity provides an important opportunity for both students and senior researchers. ISMB has become the premier conference series in this field with refereed, published proceedings, establishing an infrastructure to promote the growing body of research. ISMB comprises five main types of presentations: tutorials, plenary presentations, poster presentations, topically focused satellite meetings and software demonstrations. These tutorials and fellows contribute to the development of human resources by allowing students and post-doctoral fellows to reach a state-of-the-art level rapidly, and to begin making contributions to the field. At ISMB 2002, 15 tutorials were held, 50 papers were presented, 498 posters were presented, 6 special interest group meetings here held, and 20 software demonstrations (both non-for-profit and corporate) were presented.

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.
