Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Kuh-Ke-Nah Network (K-Net) is an autonomous telecommunications system that currently comprises over 100 points of presence (PoPs) in Aboriginal communities and related organizations across Ontario, Quebec, and Manitoba, Canada. The majority of Aboriginal communities connected by K-Net are in remote high-cost serving areas. K-Net primarily serves Ontario's Nishnawbe Aski Nation, north of the 51st parallel, where 49 First Nations communities (Indian bands, with a total population base of 45000), occupy 210000 square miles of territory, or two-thirds of Ontario, at a population density of approximately 0.2 persons per square mile.

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.
