Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The enhancement of the Carnegie Mellon software package to incorporate fixed and moving-block signaling schemes is described. The train performance simulator (TPS) component of the module calculates the train dynamics for each train set in the simulation. For fixed-block signaling systems, the TPS monitors the preceding signal for each train and bases the train's calculations on that particular aspect, the type of signal, and whether a crossover is in the next block. Essentially, the aspects determine the local speed restrictions for each train. The aspects themselves are linked together, providing three and four block protection. Conversely, moving-block signaling systems would have train calculations based on the preceding train's dynamics, as opposed to fixed locations along the track. The TPS becomes interactive if signaling is invoked. A communications window is displayed at the bottom of the screen indicating the next aspect which the train is approaching.>

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.
