Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper analyzes a multi-task agency framework where the agent exhibits task-specific abilities. It illustrates how incentive contracts account for the agent's task-specific abilities if contractible performance measures do not reflect the agent's contribution to firm value. This paper further sheds light on potential ranking criteria for performance measures in multi-task agencies. It demonstrates that the value of performance measures in multi-task agencies cannot necessarily be compared by their respective signal/noise ratios as in single-task agency relations. It is rather pivotal to take the induced effort distortion and measure-cost efficiency into consideration -- both determined by the agent's task specific abilities.

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.
