Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this article we study the statistical distributions of major chemical compositions (HCO3, Ca; charges are neglected for simplicity) and the total dissolved solid (TDS) concentration in the river water of the Changjiang (Yangtze River) of China. We propose a Bayesian finite mixture model with an unknown number of components for the multi-year averages of continuously monitored data over the period 1958–1990 at 191 stations in the drainage basin. A discretization-based Monte Carlo sampling approach is used to estimate the posterior distributions of the parameters in the model. Two sub-populations are identified for the levels of TDS, HCO3 and Ca, and observations from the 191 stations are classified into two groups using the posterior classification probabilities.

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.
