Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Aarssen (2014) proposes estimating fitness in clonal and aclonal seed plants by defining an individual as a rooted-unit, which he defines by the root-to-shoot transition in anatomy of the stele. This approach may be helpful for some seed plant taxa, maybe even most seed plants, because of being much more readily operational than most other definitions of individuals. However, the rooted-unit approach seems to falter for many weird plants, such as those with anomalous root and shoot anatomy and plants that can reproduce clonally from leaves or apomictic seeds. Another problem with using rooted-units to circumscribe individuals is the implicit assumption that mitosis constrains genetic variance and meiosis increases genetic variance, when the exact opposite may be true. Although definitions of individuals are arbitrary, there may soon be sufficient data to ascertain which definitions are most useful, i.e. which definitions of individuals help unify evolutionary theory.

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.
