Abstract
Sinha, S., Sokhansanj, S., Crerar, W.J., Yang, W., Tabil, L.G., Khoshtaghaza, M.H. and Patil, R.T. 2000. Mechanical dewatering of chopped alfalfa using an experimental piston-cylinder assembly. Can. Agric. Eng. 42:153-156. Experiments were conducted to investigate the quantity and quality of the chopped alfalfa pulp and juice extracted in a piston-cylinder assembly. Singleand doublemacerated alfalfa chops at an initial moisture content of 75.7% (wet mass basis) were pressed under constant or increasing pressures up to 20 MPa. The pressed pulp and the juice were analyzed for the contents of dry matter, protein, and β-carotene. Approximately 52% of the total water content was removed at pressures higher than 4 MPa. The pressure required to extract extra juice from already pressed pulp increased exponentially. The juice had on average solids content of 1012% (dry mass basis). On a dry matter basis, there were no reductions in either protein content or β-carotene in the pulp.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
