Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) has become a plague throughout the United States. Major losses in colonies have been reported from all states that have reported as of 26 February 2007. In Canada, where winter losses are commonly problematic, no instances of CCD have been confirmed, at least so far. But, very recent reports are of suspicious losses havin gbeen experiences in Ontario and Saskatchewan. Should Canadian beekeepers be concerned? Does Canadian beekeeping provide insights into CCD?

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.
