Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

North-South.com by Francois Ducat A film review of Francois Ducat's film 'North-South.com.' Since the arrival of the Internet in the African republic of Cameroon, Internet caf have mushroomed. In a country where nearly half the population lives under the poverty threshold, many young women who dream of escaping a life of misery by marrying a rich, white foreigner, surf the Internet for European marriage prospects at cybercafe such as Love.com, Affection.org, Flirt.net and Meeting.com. Set in the capital city of Yaound North-South.com contains interviews with many of these young women who see Europe as a paradise, and who express incredibly naive beliefs about European men that they are more masculine, more romantic, have lots of money and always tell the truth.

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.
