Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In 2007 I 'accidentally' became an art student at the Nova Scotia College of Art & Design and recently graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Art degree.The majority of my courses were studio courses where the focus was making art.But I also had to take traditional lecture type courses in art history and art criticism.What struck me about those courses was the fragmented and disorderly nature of the study of art.I figured that the messiness of art studies could be ordered along the lines of Bernard Lonergan's eight functional specialties.I had taken a stab at ordering legal studies so why couldn't I do the same for art studies? 2

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.
