Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Crowdfunding platforms can be used by individuals both to launch fundraising campaigns and to invest their savings. Crowdfunding is a funding channel through which personal or professional projects of individuals and small businesses can be directly funded by a multitude of entities. The meeting between supply and demand takes place on online platforms that provide information on individual projects and manage the flows of money. Crowdfunding is an alternative financing channel to that represented by banks or other financial intermediaries. The actual financing of a project, in fact, does not depend on the evaluation made by a single intermediary based on its own financing strategies but on the ability of the proponents to convince a sufficient number of investors to risk their funds in direct support of the initiative.

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.
