International comparison EUROMET.RI(I)-S2 of extrapolation chamber measurements of the absorbed dose rate in tissue for beta radiation (EUROMET project No 739): Final report
Bibliographic record
Abstract
For quality assurance in the realization and transfer by the national standard laboratories of the unit of the absorbed dose rate at 0.07 mm tissue depth for beta radiation, comparison measurements among the primary standard facilities are needed. Although some bilateral comparisons have taken place for this quantity, the CCRI decided in May 2003 that a EUROMET supplementary comparison would be appropriate if inclusive of primary standards laboratories of other regional metrology organizations. The operation and results of such a comparison are reported here. A flat ionization chamber and measurement system was used as the transfer instrument. A comparison was made of the calibration coefficients of this transfer instrument in various beta-particle laboratory reference fields (Pm-147, Kr-85, Tl-204 and Sr-90/Y-90) measured by each of the eight participants from France, Italy, Finland, Germany, Russian Federation, USA, Canada and Japan. The PTB was the pilot laboratory and the comparison ran from January 2004 until April 2007 under EUROMET project No 739 and EUROMET.RI(I)-S2. The results for most of the participants are consistent with the stated uncertainties although an extreme deviation is apparent for Pm-147 beta radiation for one participant. Main text.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
