Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Before 1980 the hosting of a mega sporting event such as the Olympic Games or Soccer World Cup was seen as being a financial and administrative burden to the organizing city and/or country. The major losses incurred by both the 1972 Olympics in Munich (£178 million) and the 1976 Olympics in Montreal (£692 million) substantiate this perception (Gratton et al., 2000:17). It is a well-known fact that the residents of Montreal have only recently cleared their Olympics bill! It was therefore generally accepted practice before the 1980s that hosting nations accepted such a financial burden if they staged a major sporting event. If a host country could not absorb these losses, the economic and socio-economic impact could be devastating. For this reason developing countries did not in general participate in bidding for the hosting of these events.

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.
