Isoreader: An R package to read stable isotope data files for reproducible research
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The measurement and interpretation of the stable isotope composition of any material or molecule has widespread application in disciplines ranging from the earth sciences to ecology, anthropology, and forensics.The naturally occurring differences in the abundance of the stable isotopes of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and many other elements provide valuable insight into environmental conditions and sources, fluxes, and mechanisms of material transfer.Because isotopic variations in nature are very small, the measurement itself requires cutting edge analytical instrumentation using isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) as well as rigorous data reduction procedures for calibration and quality control.The isoreader package implements an easily extendable interface for IRMS data from common instrument vendor file formats and thus enables the reading and processing of stable isotope data directly from the source.This provides a foundational tool for platform-independent, efficient and reproducible data reduction.
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 machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
