Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The study of infant feeding in past human populations is an important area of investigation, as patterns of breastfeeding and weaning have long‐term consequences on growth, health, and survivorship. Prior to using biochemical techniques, weaning was inferred through osteological indicators of stress. Since the 1990s, there has been an increase in the use of stable isotopes to investigate the timing of breastfeeding and weaning. The stable isotopes of nitrogen and carbon in bone collagen are commonly used to investigate these patterns; however, uncertainties over bone turnover rates and the time required to register dietary shifts, along with biases created by analyzing nonsurvivors, have raised questions about the validity of using isotope data from subadult bone. Recent methodological developments focus on serial sampling of teeth to overcome some of these biases by studying infant and young child feeding in individuals who survived to adulthood.

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.
