Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

From the 1860s into the 1880s, the Notman Photographic Studio in Montreal produced numerous portraits of girls reading. 1 Unlike boys, who were pictured with a hoop or baseball bat, fishing, riding a bicycle, playing with a toy boat, toppling a garden chair or holding a fur rug as if it were a hunter's trophy, the girls were usually posed as if caught in the act of reading (Figure At various stages in her development, Notman's girl subject stood or sat alone or grouped with siblings and parents, a book in her hands or by her side. Always portrayed at her best, her hair was carefully styled and her body was attired in sensible everyday clothing or a lovely dress. 2

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.
