Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In a recent article in this journal, Peter Li compares the 1995 earnings of immigrant university graduates with those of their Canadian-born counterparts (Li 2001). He groups immigrants according to where they have obtained their degree: in Canada (if they immigrated before age 13), abroad (if they immigrated after age 24), and mixed (the remainder, those who immigrated at ages 13 to 24). By also differentiating by gender and visible minority status, Li defines 16 groups. He shows that average earnings as recorded in the 1996 Census differ by gender and race as well as by immigrant status (Table 1, copied from Li's article).

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
