Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Make sure that gloves are worn for this procedure. All containers and gloves used should be rinsed with water and the water put in the waste mercury container for next time. All solutions containing mercury salts are collected into a jar labelled “Used Mercury Salts”. We keep this in our grossing room. The jar is actually a clear glass 3 kg sodium phosphate container. When the jar is about half full, to each 900 mL (estimate, don't measure) add 40 grams of sodium carbonate to raise the pH to 8.0 or higher and mix well. Leave it for a while, then filter the solution and collect the precipitate into a plastic jar for disposal. Put the filter paper in the jar as well. Seal the jar very well. We coat the lid with several layers of paraffin wax until it is about a quarter inch thick.

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.
