Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In 1997, the Canadian government signed two new copyright-related international treaties adopted by the UN's World Intellectual Protection Organization (WIPO) in December 1996: the WIPO Copyright Treaty (WCT) and the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty (WPPT). The objective of this paper is to assess the economic impact of the following new or revised rights (on different groups of stakeholders): extending the term of protection of photographs from "50 years"" to ""the life of the author plus 50 years"" (on publishers), introducing an explicit distribution right (on software makers), introducing legal protection for technological protection measures such as encryption (on publishers; software makers; audio-visual producers, multimedia and movie makers), introducing legal protection for rights management information used to identify works and other subject matters (on authors, composers and artists; software makers; audio-visual producers, multimedia and movie makers; publishers)." En 1997, le gouvernement canadien a signé deux nouveaux traités internationaux relatifs au droit d'auteur, adoptés en décembre 1996 par l'Organisation Mondiale de la Propriété Intellectuelle (OMPI, ONU) : le Traité de l'OMPI sur le droit d'auteur (WCT) et le Traité de l'OMPI sur les interprétations et exécutions et les phonogrammes (WPPT). Ce rapport a pour objectif de caractériser l'impact économique des droits suivants nouveaux ou révisés (sur diverses parties prenantes) : l'extension de la protection des ?uvres photographiques de « 50 ans » à « la vie de l'auteur plus 50 ans » (sur les éditeurs), l'introduction d'un droit exclusif d'autoriser la mise à la disposition du public de l'original et d'exemplaires de leurs ?uvres (sur les auteurs de programmes d'ordinateur), l'introduction d'une protection juridique appropriée contre la neutralisation des mesures techniques tel le chiffrement (sur les éditeurs, les auteurs de programmes d'ordinateur, les producteurs d'?uvres audio-visuelles, multimedia et cinématographiques), l'introduction d'une protection juridique pour toute information relative au régime des droits permettant d'identifier l'?uvre et diverses conditions (sur les auteurs, compositeurs et interprètes, les auteurs de programmes d'ordinateur, les producteurs d'?uvres audiovisuelles, multimedia et cinématographiques, les éditeurs).

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.
