Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Canadian Census of Population is conducted with full recognition that some eligible persons will not be enumerated and that some persons will be enumerated in error or enumerated more than once. As these errors cannot be totally eliminated, an objective of Census collection is to minimize coverage error. The measurement of coverage errors is done independently of Census collection. Several sample surveys and studies are conducted to determine the number of persons who were missed and should have been included in the Census, and the number of those who were counted but should not have been. Estimates of undercoverage and overcoverage are produced for several geographies and demographic groups. Results of the census coverage studies impact population estimates produced by Statistics Canada’s Population Estimation Program. Several significant changes in the collection, processing and estimation methodologies were implemented for the 2001 coverage studies. Much of the impact of these changes was in reducing measurement error and increasing efficiency.

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.
