Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Using museum specimens from Mexico, Canada, and the western United States, we examined sexual dimorphism in the Wilson's Warbler (Wilsonia pusilla), a Nearctic-Neotropic migrant (Passeriformes: Parulidae). On average, males had longer tails, wing chords, and eighth and ninth primaries than females. Three methods for quantifying cap plumage showed that differences in cap size and pattern alone could not definitively separate the sexes. Discriminant functions are presented for sexing individuals using cap category, cap length, wing chord, tail length, and ninth primary length. More specific functions are provided for samples from Alaska and eastern Mexico. For each group, equations are included for assigning individual probabilities of belonging to either sex.

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.
