Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

High-definition surveying (also known as laser scanning) is a non-intrusive way of rapidly collecting detailed and accurate three-dimensional as-built data without the need for closing lanes or endangering field personnel. There are a great number of laser scanning technologies currently available, and new innovations in hardware and software are reported each month. Since these 3-D laser scanning systems can cost over $100,000, surveyors or engineers should choose a system carefully. This article presents 10 criteria that should be considered when purchasing a 3-D laser scanner. These criteria include: work process, accuracy, dynamic range, device speed, field of view, operating environment, ease of use, eye safety, supplier stability and cost. Each purchaser needs to weigh these criteria according to their own market, the skill and experience of their personnel, and what systems are available and supported locally.

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 distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
