Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract. This paper proposes the first ever empirical specification of a trigonometric demand system. The new model is potentially useful because of some attractive features. It is flexible, amenable to exact aggregation over consumers, possessed of trigonometric Engel curves, which can oscillate, and able to have an unusually large regular region. With comparisons between the new model and two other popular models, an illustration is given for Japanese demand for non‐durables and services. The new model shows relatively gentle Engel curves with an inflection point on each of them, which seem reasonable, given that aggregate expenditure is used in parameter estimation. JEL classification: C51, D12

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.
