Abstract
Dissertations 2013 David Knutson The annual list of doctoral dissertations completed and in progress provides a reference and record for graduate students, their advisors, and all scholars of Spanish and Portuguese language, literatures, linguistics, and cultures. We have queried all departments that offer the PhD degree in these areas. These departments provide the students, titles, and categories listed. We express sincere appreciation to the departmental representatives who responded to the request for these reports. We also beg forgiveness in advance for potential errors and omissions in receiving, interpreting, and compiling this large amount of complicated data. Each entry appears in the following format: Student’s Name. Dissertation Title. Institution. Dissertation Director. Year of Defense (if applicable). Reports on dissertations can be submitted throughout the year at http://www.xavier.edu/modern-languages/hispania/.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
