Machine Knowledge: Information Studies and Artificial Intelligence in Dialogue
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this piece, we examine the parallels and contrasts between knowledge organization and data science with a focus on the subfields of AI and machine learning in particular. Our analysis aims to both highlight and aid making connections between information studies and artificial intelligence through the discussion of shared practical and theoretical considerations and concerns around simplification and transparency.Dans cet article, nous examinons les parallèles et les contrastes entre l'organisation des connaissances et la science des données en mettant l'accent sur les sous-domaines de l'IA et de l'apprentissage machine en particulier. Notre analyse vise à mettre en évidence et à aider à établir des liens entre les études sur l'information et l'intelligence artificielle par la discussion de considérations pratiques et théoriques partagées et de préoccupations concernant la simplification et la transparence.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
