Towards a tool for the design of cooperating expert systems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A tool to aid the designer of cooperative distributed problem solving (CDPS) systems will determine whether a proposed CDPS system violates any of the constraints for CDPS systems, and will display a prediction of the performance that can be expected from that CDPS system. This tool will rely on a predictive model for the performance of the expert systems in the CDPS system. Using the Blackbox Expert (a DAI testbed), an experiment was conducted to test the performance of expert systems in a CDPS system. Statistically significant differences in the Blackbox Expert's performance were found when the CDPS system was changed. The results of the experiment are being using to create a predictive model for the performance of the Blackbox Expert when it is a member of the CDPS system.>

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.
