Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The earliest known fossil evidence of Homo erectus in China was found at Choukoutien (Zhoukoudian), in 1923 and 1927, when Davidson Black (1884–1934) described and placed the fossils into the new taxon, Sinanthropus pekinensis . Between 1929 and 1934, Black described and published on further fossil material found at Choukoutien, including a skull found in 1929. He made casts of these fossils and filmed his preparation of the casting of the Sinanthropus skull. This skull was lost, along with the other Sinanthropus fossils, during World War II. The casts he made of the fossils found at Choukoutien from 1929 to 1934 remain priceless to science.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
