Forum workshop on establishing the scientific foundation for performance-based fire codes :
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The International Forum of Fire Research Directors (FORUM) is a group of the Directors of fire research organizations throughout the world which aim to reduce the burden of fire (including the loss of life and property, and effects of fire on the environment and heritage) through international cooperation on fire research. The desirability of having a roadmap to advance the scientific foundation for performancebased fire safety design (PBD) was agreed upon at the 2005 FORUM meeting in Magdeburg, Germany. Representatives from the FORUM membership and other invited technical experts gathered at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg on April 5-7, 2006, to develop a common, international vision for how a scientific foundation might be structured, which parts of the foundation are likely to be robust and where gaps are likely to exist into the foreseeable future. It was recognized that performance-based fire safety design already exists and is practiced in many parts of the world today, and that our current tools and level of understanding are adequate to support certain classes of performance-based fire safety design; however, other significant PBD applications were identified that exceed the capabilities of these tools. A vision for the next generation of performance-based design tools was developed that included a wide-range of enhanced capabilities that are documented in this report. Methods for the attainment of this vision were identified that included the establishment of

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 teacher head, not a consensus.
