Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Despite being promoted as a meanstoimprove the efficiency and safety of the road network,the focus of most advancedtechnologies thus far has been on improving mobility rather than safety.For example,variable message signs are ofteninstalledfor the sole purpose of providingtravel advices to drivers eventhoughthey can be used to communicate a wide variety of messages.However,once installed,it is simply communication device and could be usedfor promoting road safety when not used to display traffic related information.This study examines the effects of some anti-speeding messages on driver attitudes and traffic speed on aninter-city highway.Aquestionnaire survey was developed and administered to a sample of nearly 100 drivers.The test site chosen for this quasi-experiment was Highway 2 betweenthe Cities of Edmonton and Calgary.The study showedthat the messages developed have only a relatively small albeit beneficial effect on driver attitudes and on-roadtraffic speed.

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.
