Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Corpora has been widely used in language teaching and learning nowadays. The use of corpora facilitates teachers for effective language teaching, meanwhile it provides valuable materials for the language learners to learn the language. The current study focuses on the self-designed corpus in dictation part in TEM4 and aims to explore if there any difference exists in the three sets of materials (TEM4 dictation, TEM4 mock and listening textbook dictation). The author finds that TEM4 dictation enjoys higher quality compared with the other two types of the material. In addition, the listening textbook dictation covers most topics that exist in TEM4 dictation. The mock test dictation fails to cover as much relevant information as possible. Such findings will be helpful for the test-takers to prepare the TEM4 dictation.

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.
