Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Under the framework of a pilot project for safe tattooing practices, Cowansville Institution officially opened the first tattoo parlor within a Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) facility on 1 August 2005. This project, which is a CSC partnership component under the Federal Initiative to address HIV/AIDS in Canada, will run for a year in six penitentiaries across the country. Cowansville Institution was selected as the pilot site in the Quebec Region. Since tattooing is a fact of prison life, unsafe tattooing practices increase the number of infections among inmates, which puts the entire population at risk. CSC is committed to reducing the transmission of infectious diseases within the inmate population and throughout the community by offering inmates this measure to reduce harm. It is first and foremost a public‐health issue. CSC must take into consideration all measures that could minimize the harm related to the transmission of infectious diseases and reduce the risk of infectious diseases.

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.
