Canadian Geoscience: Charting New Territory in the 21 st Century The Geological Association of Canada Presidential Address, GeoCanada 2010, May 10, 2010
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Geological Association of Canada Presidential Address is traditionally delivered by the outgoing President of the Association at the annual general meeting; in this case, GeoCanada 2010, held in Calgary, Alberta, provided the opportunity for the 2010 address. The objectives of the address, and of this paper, are: To outline the status and trend information and observations on what economic and natural drivers influenced geoscience societies and geoscience careers in Canada over the last 10 years; To anticipate what the future might hold for individual geoscientists and the organizations for whom they work; To encourage more support for geoscience societies from geoscientists and their employers; and To call for a renewal of cooperation between geoscience associations in Canada and abroad. SOMMAIRE Conformement a la tradition le presi-dent sortant de l’Association geologique du Canada a profite de la tenue de GeoCanada 2010, a Calgary, Alberta pour livrer le message du presi-dent 2010. Les objectifs de son message – et du present article sont les suivants : Decrire l’etat et la tendance de l’information et des observations sur les facteurs economiques et naturels qui ont influes sur les societes et les carrieres geoscientifiques au Canada au cours des 10 dernieres annees; Projeter les changements a venir tant pour les personnes que pour les organismes ou elles travaillent; Attiser l’aide aux societes geoscientifiques de la part des geoscientifiques et de leurs employeurs; et Promouvoir la repetition de la cooperation entre les associations geoscientifiques canadiennes et etrangeres.

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.
