Abstract
Fall-related hip fractures are a major public health issue. While individual-level risk assessment tools exist, population-level predictive models could catalyze innovation in large-scale interventions. This study presents a hierarchical probabilistic model that predicts population-level hip fracture risk based on Factor of Risk (FOR) principles. Model validation demonstrated that FOR output aligned with a published dataset categorized by sex and hip fracture status. The model predicted normalized FOR for 100000 individuals simulating the Canadian older-adult population. Predicted hip fracture risk was higher for females (by an average of 38%), and increased with age (by15% per decade). Potential applications are discussed.

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
