Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

As the global climate changes, its effects on the environment are increasingly evident. Average global temperatures are rising, precipitation patterns are shifting, and the frequency of extreme weather events is growing, with impacts on the distribution and viability of all life forms. For human health, one emerging concern is that we do not fully understand how the geographic ranges of vector-borne diseases—those caused by parasites, bacteria, and viruses transmitted to humans via an intermediate host organism—are being influenced by climate change. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), major vector-borne diseases account for about 17 percent of all infectious diseases and lead to 700,000 deaths per year. The biggest burden of such diseases falls on tropical and subtropical regions and disproportionately affect the world's poorest populations. But as our planet warms, those in temperate regions and developed nations are being affected too. Research is under way to reveal clues and predictive tools for determining where diseases might be located in the future. As our understanding of disease risks and their changing distribution emerges, there is hope that our ability to prepare for and mitigate their impacts will advance alongside.

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.
