Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study is attempt to examine the factors affecting demand of fertilizer in three selected least developed countries (LDCs); Myanmar, Lesotho and Tanzania by using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) method. The theory of demand function has been applied to the analysis and the model has been transformed to log form for estimation purposes. Several tests have been conducted to detect multicollinearity, autocorrelation and heteroscedasticity. The finding reveals that cereal yield is statistically significant for all countries while price is only statistically significant for Lesotho. It is expected more robust result could be evidenced using larger data set, adding more variables and using other proxies for the variables.

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.
