Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper presents a new method for metrically defining sexual dimorphism in the human femur. It presents a standardized technique for establishing anatomically meaningful landmarks for measuring vertical and horizontal diameters of the femoral head, based on weight transmission. The study was conducted at the Medicolegal Institute of Bhopal, India, on a sample comprising of 124 individuals (80 males and 44 females), the majority of them being medicolegal specimens. The mean age was 58.3 years for males and 52.4 years for females. To check the efficacy of the newly suggested method, the bones were also measured for maximum vertical and horizontal diameters following traditional anthropometric techniques. The method based on “non-conventional” measures was found to be more accurate (94.7% for vertical and 95.2% for horizontal diameter) as compared to the traditional techniques. Intra- and inter-observer statistics are also presented.

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.
