Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In order to provide details of the early history of Canadian theatre, Dr. Yashdip Bains travelled widely for over a decade beginning in the mid-1970s to consult early Canadian newspapers held in libraries and archives in Canada, England, and the United States. The research task the author set for himself was formidable, and remains worthy of our admiration for the time and effort that went into his ambitious undertaking. As a result of that research, Dr. Bains published eleven articles in various journals between 1975 and 1985 that contributed to our knowledge of the development of theatre in Canada during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In English Canadian Theatre, 1765-1826, Dr. Bains has reworked those articles to provide a one volume "account of the development of theatricals from the beginnings of amateur and touring companies to the building of Canada's first commercial house in Montreal in 1825." It is good to have these material brought together in one work.

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.
