Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A study to determine the number of noise exposure measurements days required to be performed on a group of workers, so as to obtain reliable results was conducted. In all 13 groups from two different sites were involved, with sample sizes ranging from 3 to 24 employees (average 12.5). Surveys were performed for four consecutive days. The reports from the surveys included the results from each one of the four days of testing (LTTrade,8) and of the corresponding LTrade,32. The daily LTrade,8 were compared with the corresponding LTrade,32, using the Student's t-Test. Results show that for the samples being tested, there were no significant differences in 88.5% of the cases. It was concluded that one day of testing is probably sufficient. However, because of the difficulty in determining a "typical" day, it is recommended that testing be performed for two days.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
