Abstract
In 2004 the Bank of Canada implemented a meta data repository to provide economists, analysts, researchers and business data managers with easy access to information about the statistical data they use and produce in their work. The web based, bilingual (French and English) application allows staff members working with economic and financial data to easily determine what statistical data are available, to acquire information about these data such as their sources and to locate specific data objects (time series, formulas). The repository facilitates the re-use and sharing of statistical data resources by also capturing information on corporate applications and projects that use and create statistical data. This paper describes the reasons for the creation of the repository, the challenges experienced and overcome, the lessons learned and the rewards since implementation.
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 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.
