Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

EDITOR'S SUMMARY Knowledge organization systems (KOS) are ubiquitous and helpful, but from an economist's perspective their value and contribution to economic productivity are hard to quantify. Though estimating the aggregate impact of KOS is a challenge, it is possible to enhance that impact through the use of a shared or interoperable controlled vocabulary with rules for interpreting text. Like RDF triplets underlying the Semantic Web, elements can be identified to represent phenomena, relationships and properties, and then combined using a synthetic approach to generate complex concepts. Such a vocabulary would be enhanced with related concept information, expanding a user's discovery through a web of hierarchical and associative relationships. The vocabulary would be interdisciplinary and applicable to any database, geared to building upon simple expressions for generic phenomena. The KOS could serve as a universal thesaurus complementing the combinable elements used to classify content with the potential to be a landmark classification system.

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.
