Financial Report of the Secretary-Treasurer: 1 January 2004-31 December 2004
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Secretary-Treasurer has organized this report to reflect the purpose and status of each of the Society's assets. Some investments are intended to help support gifts and grants while others are reinvested for growth. Routine operating funds are maintained in the SASS operating account. Income and expenditures are itemized. The Society is financially sound with assets on 31 December 2004 of $731,494.40. The Society has a current membership of 682 (237 Institutional and 445 Individual), a decrease of 6 members since 2003. Institutional memberships number 160 in the US and Canada, and 77 abroad. Individual memberships number 393 in the US and Canada, and 52 abroad. The Society currently has 43 lifetime members (32 in the US and Canada and ii abroad), and 9 institutional life subscriptions (6 in the us and Canada and 3 abroad). Brigham Young University's College of Humanities has for many years generously assisted SASS by providing office facilities and equipment and by paying the wages for a staff of students to assist with publication of our quarterly journal and other materials, maintain the SASS web site, and process membership dues. This report does not reflect the monetary value of the subsidy provided by Brigham Young University's Scandinavian Studies office. In 2004 the Society received a generous grant of $500,000 from the family of Birgit Baldwin to establish a fellowship in her honor for dissertation research in the Nordic region. We have pursued a dollar-averaging investment strategy to moderate the effects of fluctuations in the price of securities, spreading our purchases in the Capital Builder mutual fund over a period of one year. This process concluded in May zoos. In the meantime, the funds not yet thus involved were invested primarily in certificates of deposit. A.

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.
