Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Canada, a country of 10 provinces and 3 territories with a population of 32 million, is one of the world's wealthiest nations in terms of per capita income. Its economy is now dominated by the service sector which employs about 75% of working Canadians. However, the primary resource sector remains important especially the oil, mining, agriculture and forestry industries. There is also a significant manufacturing base, in particular in Quebec and Ontario with the aeronautics and automotive industries being especially important. Information about occupational disease is obtained mainly from workers’ compensation data, although occupational disease is significantly underreported [1]. The majority of claims are for repetitive strain injury, noise-induced hearing loss, skin disease, respiratory disease and cancer, in particular lung cancer and mesothelioma due to previous asbestos exposure. In industry, the main problems dealt with are musculoskeletal disorders and psychiatric problems affecting work.

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.
