Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Harold Innis has attracted critical attention from both authors and scholars that criticize his methodology and from those who, like him, are concerned with « the interplay of force and intelligence in human affairs. » In a clearly written book, Alexander John Watson undertakes the long and arduous task of unveiling a complex figure not only in the field of Canadian economic history but also in Academia.

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.
