Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Transformations can take place at the organizational and personal level. This article is about both. It presents the narratives of the careers of Canadian swimmers with a disability who, through their training and hard work, went from being defined as persons with disabilities to become Paralympians, as the sport system of Paralympic Games swimming changed from being disability-based to sport-based. Their stories are similar to athletes in other countries who compete in the global Paralympic Games system, but with one difference, this sport events take place without the use of high tech wheelchair equipment and prostheses, as in athletics. Athletes compete with unadorned bodies in the water of the pool, and the pool is also transformative in its own way, allowing for mobility and movement that gravity on dry land does not sustain.

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.
