Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Since the end of Dennard scaling and Moore's Law have been foreseen, specialized hardware has become the focus for continued scaling of application performance. Programmable accelerators such as smart memory, smart disks, and smart NICs are now being integrated into our systems. Many accelerators can be programmed to process their data autonomously and require little or no intervention during normal operation. In this way, entire applications are offloaded, leaving the CPU with the minimal responsibilities of initialization, coordination and error handling.

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.

Not 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.
