Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Increasing world trade in unmanufactured wood articles has amplified the risks of inadvertent introduction of pests into new environments. Previous introductions of non-native invasive organisms into the United States have resulted in severe outbreaks with economic and ecological disruption in forests. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) and the USDA Forest Service have developed a pest risk assessment process that attempts to identify the risks associated with importation of unmanufactured wood articles. Assessments have been completed for importation into the United States of logs from Russia, New Zealand, Mexico, and South America. The results of these assessments are considered in developing regulatory approaches to preventing introductions of non-native invasive organisms.

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.
