Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The description of texts based on their title, author, publisher, and with appeals toauthority records, has been a cornerstone of bibliographic description as practiced in librarycatalogues. There are also many parallel or alternative descriptive projects from other fields.Examples of these include fairy tale motifs, literature tropes, character archetypes, story patterns,subject headings, semantic features, citations, allusions, musical influence, theater family trees,and more. Each of these projects represent understandings of texts that are valued by people andcould enhance the library catalogue. What is needed is a framework for synthesizing a diversityof descriptions into the catalogue.

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.
