Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

During the 1990s medical studies using public health methodologies about injury and death due to weapons in conflict began to appear in the medical literature. The 1990s was also the period when the concept of human security was materialising in the development and humanitarian communities. Nowadays it is common for global organisations, governmental and non-governmental agencies, and academics to conduct scientific studies of human security. Many such studies gather evidence about human insecurity and these in turn lead to policy recommendations pertaining to improving human security. The data-to-policy process applies in this domain. In this article we propose that conceptual developments in human security and methods which generate scientific evidence of human security or insecurity have combined to create a new science: the science of human security. We describe key problems inherent in this new multidisciplinary science, some unique methodological challenges and new scientific opportunities.

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.
