Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the novels, short stories, travel accounts, and journalism that she published over 30 years, Sara Jeannette Duncan was predominantly a social satirist. In her most popular work, the satire is comic and forgiving; in her mature fiction, which explored the themes of modern womanhood and imperial politics, her Horatian perspective is darkened by mordant irony and an emphasis on failed ideals. A Canadian‐born writer who adopted an international perspective and did most of her work while living in India (with extended visits to London), Duncan produced a varied output of 22 books united by an interest in representative national types and in the conflict between personal desire and social duty.

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.
