But readers should not be fooled. This is an erudite volume, remarkable for the depth of its research and the thoughtfulness of its argument. Medicine by Design tells the story of a handful of hospitals (and additions to hospitals) in order to refute the oversimplified notion that innovation in medical practice drove architectural change. Adams's starting position is that this was a reciprocal and iterative process wherein architects influenced doctors and vice versa. The full title, Medicine by Design: The Architect and the Modern Hospital, 1893–1943, suggests a much larger topic than the one covered; indeed, Adams's book is far from comprehensive, but, except in the title, she makes no claims to that effect. In fact, the book places one hospital at its center, the Royal Victoria Hospital in Montreal, and one architectural firm, Stevens and Lee, dominates the study....

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.
