Abstract
by Stanley Finger and Paul Eling (2019). In this book, Finger and Eling describe the rise and fall of phrenology, or organology, the brainchild of Gall. The authors examine the science of mind and brain in the late-18th and early-19th centuries and contextualize his work as the most advanced scientific approach to the study of brain function of his time. Contrary to the way that he is depicted today, Gall is not presented as a charlatan, a quack, or a fraud. He was a physician with a medical degree, a voracious reader, a man familiar with the developments in science and medicine who wanted to develop a science of mankind based on hard facts that others could confirm (p. 122). This book is a reevaluation of Gall's contributions to the science of mind and brain, psychology, and neuroscience, with a focus on the issue of the cerebral localization of function. It also examines Gall's contributions to psychiatry, criminology, and social reform. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
