Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

If one thing is beyond discussion in June of 2020, it is that we are living in unique times, even if pandemics are far from unique in longer Human history. A short article in this issue on the topical concept of the Anthropocene closes with a quote that (in part) reads that "....some humility is in order about our, thus far, infinitesimal part in the history of the planet". Our high-technology society has certainly received a stark reminder of the power of the natural world, as it struggles to prevail over one of the most primitive of life forms. Few previous analyses of the pandemic threat that I have read fully captured the economic impacts and ethical dilemmas that confront us in this time of Covid. Many in the Canadian Geoscience Community suffered these impacts and some are now directly touched by illness or bereavement. On behalf of those involved in Geoscience Canada, I extend sympathies and condolences, and the hope that the time of Covid will be brief.

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.
