Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper presents a multiagent systems model for constructing nurse rosters. Over the past decade self-rostering has become more favorable in nursing personnel scheduling, due to its empowerment and motivational benefits. However, the labor intensive negotiation procedure among participants has limited its application to medium sized and large wards. To overcome this limitation, we propose an automated negotiation tool utilizing economic-based negotiation mechanisms. We model the environment as a multiagent system. Nurses can indicate their preferences by configuring the preference profiles of the nurse agents, and the nurse agents collectively construct rosters through the negotiation with the management agents and among themselves. To support the design and implementation of automated self-rostering systems, we present a multiagent systems architecture, a structure of preference information, and a negotiation mechanism.

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.
