Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

I'm constantly amazed about the truth of the saying “there is nothing new under the sun.” For over a year, I trumpeted the claim that the 2008 GAC midyear meeting was the first to be held outside North America. It turns out that this isn't true. Wafik Beydoun, during his chairmanship in 1996, held a midyear meeting in Pau. However, it is true that—other than Pau, Calgary (in 2006), and this year in Rijswijk, the Netherlands—all GAC meetings had been in Houston. Of course, many dedicated GAC members live and work in Houston, but the current GAC officers believe it is important that GAC activities better reflect the reality of globalization. Consequently, we hope that Houston meetings become just one option.

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.
