Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article investigates visiting friends and relatives (VFR) tourists visiting Cape Breton Island in Atlantic Canada during the summer of 2008. Family and friends who return to Cape Breton Island to attend local festivals and special events and visit tourism attractions were sampled. More specifically, the purpose of this quantitative study is to demonstrate the development of the events and attractions component of the Cape Breton tourist product, establish an understanding of the effects of current marketing approaches of the events and attractions on the VFR market segment of tourists visiting Cape Breton Island, and to investigate if the marketing of unique attractions affects the decisions of the VFR tourist to return to Cape Breton. A randomized sample of 105 completed surveys was conducted at ten special events or locations. The work provides the investigator with data regarding which stimuli are ultimately the most effective when marketing Cape Breton Island to this market segment.

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.
