Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

“Human nature is never more evident than when men are struggling to gain a larger share of funds or to apportion what they have among myriad claimants.”:Wildavsky “Money talks. It speaks to the purposes of men and nations. Government spending decisions not only affect the public's standard of living but also reflect the standards by which public men live.”:Heclo and Wildavsky The Politics of the Budgetary Process. By aaron wildavsky. Boston: Little, Brown The Private Government of Public Money: Community and Policy Inside British Politics, 2nd edition. By hugh heclo and aaron wildavsky. London: Macmillan, 1981. Pp. 399.

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.
