Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A detailed design of an autonomous amphibious vehicle (AAV) capable of traversing across aquatic and terrestrial environments is presented. The vehicle features a unique suspension system built into the two segment body, whereby a joint allows each segment to pitch and roll independently of one another while traveling across uneven terrain. Four driven paddle wheels propel the vehicle while on-land and on-water. Modular buoyancy attachments have been used in order to allow the AAV to float on water as necessary. A control algorithm has also been proposed to allow the AAV to travel from its current location to another location specified with latitude and longitude coordinates.

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.
