Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract This paper uses a difference‐in‐differences strategy and an event‐study analysis to evaluate the effect of Uber entries on vehicle miles travelled in 346 US Metropolitan statistical areas between 2011 and 2017. Empirical results demonstrate that Uber entries have no significant effect on the total vehicle miles travelled in a city. However, Uber is found to decrease the vehicle miles travelled on highways but increase them on collector roads. All these effects come mainly from large metropolitan statistical areas. A simulation exercise suggests that Uber entries cause longer travel times if the share of travel time spent on collector roads is high.

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.
