Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

occasionally reported for species in several North American families. Dyrkacz (1981) listed 18 species in four families in his review of albinism. Numerous reports have been published since his review. Variations include albinism (e.g., Brandon and Rutherford, 1967; Houck, 1969; Channell and Valentine, 1972), leucistic phenotypes (Mitchell and Church, 1998; Mitchell and Mazur, 2002; Lamb and Qualls, 2013; Paluh et al., 2013), and various unusual color variants (Pauley et al., 2001; Mitchell, 2004; Williams et al., 2013; Moore and Ouellet, 2014). The unusual piebald pattern has been reported for Ambystoma mexicanum (Shaw & Nodder) (Axolotl), (http://www.caudata. org/photoplog/index.php?title=axolotls-ambystomamexicanumc Treitler et al., 2013). It refers to the absence of pigment or presence of white spots in irregular patches on an animal that otherwise has normal coloration. It is usually caused by developmental anomalies in pigment cells and is not necessarily related Herpetology Notes, volume 8: 599-601 (2015) (published online on 06 December 2015)

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.
