Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

On June 17, 2019, a new ground of trademark invalidation and opposition took effect in Canada: that “an application [for registration] was filed in bad faith.” This cryptic provision was enacted in 2018 to modify the package of 2014 amendments to the Trademarks Act that, when proclaimed into effect in 2019, radically changed Canada’s trademark system by allowing for the first time the registration of trademarks without evidence of use.\nThis Comment explores why the bar on bad faith applications was enacted and how it may work in practice.

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.
