Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper analyses policy information on the Web to understand how the hyperlinked organization of webpages, produced by real world, web-enabled policy co mmunities, influences the structure and content of the Web’s information supply. These virtual networks of information will be referred to as virtual policy networks (VPN), which are defined as observable patterns of relations among web-enabled policy co mmunities. The organization of virtual teams, social networks and online co mmunities is well documented; however, similar considerations of real world policy co mmunities that are fully established, and then become web-enabled are sparse. This project takes tentative steps towards addressing this dearth in the literature by exa mining the networked relations of the Canadian climate change VPN. The key research questions addressed are what policy actors are participating in the web-based policy community, who has the most influence in the virtual climate change do main, and how is information organized.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
