Abstract
Background: Over the past 10 years, there has been a surge of interest in studying smallarea \ncharacteristics as determinants of population and individual health. Accumulating \nevidence indicates the existence of variations in the health status of populations living in \nareas that differ in affluence and shows that selected small-area characteristics are \nassociated with the occurrence of selected health behaviours. These variations cannot be \nattributed solely to differential characteristics of populations living within small areas. One \nvexing problem that confronts researchers is that of conceptualizing and operationalizing \nneighbourhoods through delineation of small territorial units in health research. \nGoals and Methods: The aims of this paper are to selectively overview conceptual \ndefinitions of neighbourhoods and to illustrate the challenges of operationalizing \nneighbourhoods in urban areas by describing our attempts to map out small territorial \nunits on the Island of Montreal and in the City of Calgary. \nConclusion: We outline guiding principles for the construction of a methodology for \nestablishing small-area contours in urban areas and formulate recommendations for future \nresearch.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
