Abstract
<ns3:p>Urban agriculture is gaining attraction to become one of the pillars of the urban ecological transition and to</ns3:p> <ns3:p>increase food security in an urbanized planet. However, there is a lack of systematic quantification of the</ns3:p> <ns3:p>benefits provided by urban agriculture solutions. In this paper, we present an R package to estimate several</ns3:p> <ns3:p>indicators related to benefits of urban agriculture. The goal is to provide a tool for researchers and practitioners</ns3:p> <ns3:p>interested in the impacts of urban agriculture. The ediblecity package provides functions to calculate 8</ns3:p> <ns3:p> indicators: urban heat island, runoff prevention, green areas accessibility, NO <ns3:sub>2</ns3:sub> sequestration, jobs created in </ns3:p> <ns3:p>commercial gardens, volunteers involved in community gardens, green per capita and, finally, food production.</ns3:p> <ns3:p>Moreover, the package also provides a function to generate scenarios with different implementations of urban</ns3:p> <ns3:p>agriculture. We illustrate the use of the package by comparing three scenarios in a neighborhood of Girona</ns3:p> <ns3:p>(Spain), which is included in the package as an example dataset. There, we compare scenarios with an</ns3:p> <ns3:p>increasing amount of urban agriculture solutions. The ediblecity package is open-source software. This</ns3:p> <ns3:p>allows other R developers to contribute to the package, providing new functionalities or improving the existing</ns3:p> <ns3:p>ones.</ns3:p>

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 it
