Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper evaluates several design alternatives, applied to an existing energy-efficient house, that have been developed using both parametric and non-parametric approaches. The performance of the selected alternatives has been evaluated using the multi-attribute life-cycle analysis, with three objective functions: (1) the total energy consumption, including the embodied energy and operating energy; (2) the life-cycle cost, including the initial and energy operating costs and (3) the environmental impacts, calculated in terms of equivalent CO2 emissions. Results show that the energy performance of this existing energy-efficient house can still be improved.

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.
