Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Criminal Code of Canada contains three offences in respect of an individual’s involvement with a “criminal organization.” The model of criminal liability created in the Code is considered at large, and with specific reference to the American RICO laws and the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime (UNTOC). While the Criminal Code provisions aim to further an internationally coordinated criminal law policy to target organized crime and trans-national criminality in new ways, the content of these new offences is problematic. This is particularly so in respect to the lowest-tier offence of simple “participation in a criminal organization.”

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.
