Abstract
Vet 2011, the International Year of the Veterinarian, has been a remarkable year, celebrating the birth 250 years ago of formal veterinary education and training, as well as the development of veterinary science as a discipline in its own right. The past 12 months have been marked by various veterinary activities and events held around the world, culminating in the recent World Veterinary Congress in Cape Town, South Africa in October. Coincidentally, the global elimination of rinderpest was announced this year (1): the cattle plague that was the original impetus for the development of the veterinary school in Lyons, France, back in 1761. Although never seen in North America, this disease has attacked farmed and wild cattle in Asia, Europe, and Africa for over 1000 years, resulting in significant animal suffering and death, as well as human famine. A vaccine for rinderpest was developed by Dr. Walter Plowman (2), a British veterinary scientist, and the elimination of the disease is widely considered to be the greatest veterinary achievement since the founding of the profession.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
