Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Emile Ollivier's short story, Une nuit, un taxi, offers a vision of the city as Babelian confusion, as excessive difference. As a rewrite of Jacques Ferron's Le Pont, Ollivier proposes a new and alarming vision of the cosmopolitan city. Contesting the figure of the bridge as a clichd image of translation, this article examines Ollivier's story within the context of immigrant writing in Montreal including such writers as Marco Micone, Abla Farhoud and Rgine Robin and its capacity to translate a diversity of experiences and memories into the fabric of the city.

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.

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.
