Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The National Audit Office (NAO) (2008a) has warned that ‘reforms to the end of year funding process may no longer incentivise departments to manage their budgets in a way that represents optimum value for money. In 1999–2000, under the End Year Flexibility initiative (EYF), departments were given the fl exibility to carry forward unspent funds from one year to another … In light of the tighter fi scal environment, HM Treasury has exercised greater control over the amount departments can use … there is a risk that the system now offers departments insuffi cient incentives to avoid wasteful spending of excess funds’. We don’t know what will happen, and Nick Timmins (pages 96–7) reports‘assurances’ from the Department of Health (DH) that any surpluses will not be lost.

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.
