Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

<p>Behavioural parameters of Chironomus tentans and Lumbriculus variegatus were investigated using time-lapse photography for the use in an early-warning biomonitoring system for drinking water. The Multispecies Freshwater Biomonitor (MFB) was used to quantify these behaviours and its utility and integration into such a system was evaluated. The contaminants tributyltin, atrazine, copper, and ciprofloxacin were used to elicit stress responses. Time-lapse photography established foraging and swimming behaviours of both species as model behaviours for use in non-visual bioassays. The MFB identified stress responses from both organisms exposed to 100μg/L TBT (p = 0.008) but not under exposure to 500μg/L of Cu and 10% EtOH (p = 0.120 and 0.286 respectively). The MFB was not successful in detecting behavioural deviations on a consistent basis and was concluded that it was not suitable for integration into an early-warning biomonitoring system. The study concluded with suggested modifications and future work with the MFB.</p>

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.
