Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Advancements in statistics are normally geared to addressing topics that will either address an existing gap in the field or to render analysis results more accurate/reliable. This work aims to add to existing research by extending from binary Generalized Linear Model (GLM) and Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM) to a multinomial logit, multivariate GLM (MGLM) and multivariate GLMM (MGLMM), subject to ordered equality and inequality constraints.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

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.
