Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A review of the Information Systems literature reveals that experiments are employed infrequently by IS researchers. Further, there is some evidence that the use of experiments is not increasing and may, in fact, be declining. A relatively new approach, the Web experiment, is introduced as a tool for Information Systems researchers to take advantage of the benefits of experimental methods, while avoiding some of the costs. A Web experiment resides on a Web site and can be accessed online through a browser. The experiment includes one or more independent variables that are dynamically manipulated through the Web. Subjects are typically remote from the experimenter and are free to complete the experiment at a time and place of their choosing. The strengths and weaknesses of Web experiments are explored.

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.
