Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Vancouver is striving to be one of Canada's most progressive cities in terms of sustainable development, as evidenced by its goal of becoming the world's greenest city by 2020.A core area of the City's strategy in achieving this objective is the promotion of green industries, including the green building sector.While there has been significant research on the technical aspects of green building, there has been relatively little on the policy dynamics of the sector.Given that studies of the Cascadia region reveal thriving green building sectors with active policy communities, the absence of a targeted and specific study of Vancouver's green building sector presents a knowledge gap.The purpose of this paper is to examine the policy processes involved in promoting green building in Vancouver.The research seeks to provide insight into the intricacies of the green building sector and better understand how it responds to and shapes policy.It is hoped that the lessons drawn from the research will contribute to the discourse occurring locally and in other jurisdictions.

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.
