Making Context Sensitive Design an Everyday Part of Geometric Design Practice
Bibliographic record
Abstract
At the last TAC meeting in 2006 in Charlottetown, a full morning was devoted to a workshop on Context Sensitive Design (CSD) practices. Nearly 100 people participated in the workshop. Four presentations were made on different aspects of CSD by Messrs. John Robinson, Tim Neuman, Roy Biller and Leonard Ng. Each presentation was followed by informed comments and suggestions from the participants. The focus was on moving CSD into mainline practice. This paper, presented by the Chair of the Workshop, is a synopsis of the main points raised in the workshop session. The overall message was one of acceptance of CSD and the need to advance the science by taking certain explicit initiatives and including the subject of CSD in the TAC Geometric Guide.

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.
