Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Small or early-stage businesses often require sources of equity, loans, and/or debt funding to support their growth. An important part of the documentation accompanying funding requests can be derived from analytical data associated with the business. There are numerous commercial business intelligence (BI) tools to monitor data and generate business insights. However, most of the retail entrepreneurs still use manual and/or simple techniques, having little time to dedicate to sophisticated BI tools. In this work, we consider how supervised learning models can be used for retail telecommunications businesses. Specifically, we examine how nearest neighbour techniques, feed forward artificial neural networks, Bayesian classifiers, and support vector machines can be used with retail telecommunication data. As indicated by our initial results we have been able to achieve precision of 95.5%, recall of 94.7%, and f-measure of 95.1% which demonstrates that we can categorize retail telecommunication data based on the profitability.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
