Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Recent comments regarding market demand for TiO 2 in the second half of 2012 are not consistent with DuPont's view and overstate the softness in the pigment industry, BC Chong, DuPont Titanium Technologies president, said. We think that pigment producers (...) are seeing somewhat lower demand, and may be switching more of their feedstock requirements from the higher-priced synthetic rutile to lower-priced slag because the input cost savings outweigh the reduced production efficiencies in a soft demand market, Tom Casey Tronox CEO, said at the time. Kronos Worldwide Inc. also reported weak third quarter results as higher average TiO 2 selling prices and lower sales and production volumes hampered profitability. The US company's net income totalled $35.2m in Q3 2012, compared with $85.9m for the third quarter of 2011, while net sales for the quarter fell 14% y-o-y to $75.1m

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.
