Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A detailed model for designing an online Multi-Criteria Electoral System (MCES) is presented. Such a system is based on emerging technology and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). It deals with the intensity of preferences in contrast with traditional "yes-no" votes. Our objective is to minimize the imperfections of traditional voting systems and bring about electoral reform. A prototype Web-based system is developed and then used to analyze a real public policy issue. We also explore the practical implications of such a system in the context of a few other scenarios.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
