A short history of the first 3 years of the Community Genetics Network and its newsletter
Bibliographic record
Abstract
When in 2007 it became clear that the Karger journal Community Genetics would change its name and scope, the first author started to establish an international, multidisciplinary e-mail network and a newsletter with papers authored by the members of the network. This paper reports on the first 3 years of the network. At the end of the 3-year period, there were 858 members, 50 newsletters had appeared, and almost 1,500 different papers from 458 journals had been cited. This model may serve as an example for others who want to bring together those sharing a common interest.
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 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.
