Abstract
In the research carried out by the European Science Foundation «CITTA» (Cities as International \nand Transnational Actors) network, whose main results are presented here, attempts are made to \nanalyse not just one specific type, goal, or form of city international activity, but a wide-ranging \nrepertoire of actions. The key aspects addressed, concern the internal features of a city's \ninternational agency and, more precisely, the ways in which related issues enter and are processed \nin urban agendas. No fewer than ten cities were studied: Amsterdam, Birmingham, Budapest, \nMadrid, Manchester, Montreal, Paris, Rome, Vilnius, and Zurich. \nA consistent and controlled comparison was carried out drawing on a similar set of independent \nvariables. Following up on the debate regarding the nature of the impact of the globalisation process \non urban areas, our research does not give support to the `convergence theory' approach, as the \ninternational activities carried out by cities and the orientation of their strategies tend to follow \ndifferent paths based on their own `digestion' of global change. \nOnce identified a prevailing international strategy, three main orientations in which an adequate \namount of internal coherence was found were identified: economic, political, and social. The \nexistence, the orientation, and the convergence or divergence of a city's international strategy may \nbe explained by a group of independent variables. In particular, a set of six variable clusters enabled \nto respond to the questions mentioned above: (i) city market conditions, (ii) urban society, (iii) the \nnature of intergovernmental relations, (iv) the type of political system, (v) the geopolitical \ndimension, and (vi) the city's international history

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
