Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) has often been regarded as outdated, frozen in the past. For example, the anthropologist Paul Nadasdy (2004) found such attitudes in the Yukon, where government biologists, often with little field experience, dismissed and belittled local indigenous knowledge. They assumed it to be static and anecdotal, and often based on spiritual rather than empirical foundations. Similar dismissal of TEK by biologists and others is widely reported. Even anthropologists often regard TEK as a quaint survival technique that can be ignored in studies of indigenous peoples today.

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.
