Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

the guest drinks the tea, a younger woman in the back asks about the scroll.The teacher explains the meaning and as she proceeds to discuss the day's flower arrangement another student arrives.She sits on her knees and greets the teacher formally by bowing, and apologizing for running late.The teacher, delighted to see her (busy with work, she has missed the last few weekly lessons), compliments her colorful kimono and asks how her mother is doing.The lesson proceeds with each of the students taking turns as guest or host, preparing tea in different ways depending on the types of utensils chosen.Three hours later, when all have finished, cleaned up, and chatted a bit as they gather their belongings and slip on their shoes, the students file out of the house and return to their cars to drive back home-not to the suburbs of Tokyo (although similar a scene might have occurred in Japan), but to their respective Los Angeles neighborhoods.

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.
