Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

During the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) outbreak, the Chinese Torontonians rallied behind various community organisations to address their shared concerns. In order to efficiently mobilise both human and material resources in the midst of the public health crisis, the Community Coalition Concerned about SARS was formed on April 14, 2003 shortly after SARS hits Toronto.

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.
