Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this work, we propose a novel quantitative security metric, VEA-bility, which measures the desirability of different network configurations. An administrator can then use the VEA-bility scores of different configurations to configure a secure network. Based on our findings, we conclude that the VEA-bility can be used to accurately estimate the comparative desirability of a specific network configuration. This information can then be used to explore alternate possible configurations and allows an administrator to select one among the given options. These tools are important to network administrators as they strive to provide secure, yet functional, network configurations.

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.
