Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The goal of meat alternatives, specifically plant-based and cultured meat, is to provide an environmentally friendly food source that has the same cost, taste, and nutritional value as real meat.Currently, the main issue for alternative meat sources is the production expenses that contribute to the elevated prices observed by consumers in the market.This paper focuses on maintaining a high-quality product in terms of nutritional value while minimizing the production expenses associated with raw materials, manufacturing, transportation, and storage for a single serving (142 g) of a plant-based beef patty.Raw material constraints were established from a dataset of 20 different plant-based beef patty products currently found on the market.Transportation and storage costs and constraints were based on literature values with a variable market share.Additionally, the maximum amount of allowable greenhouse gas emissions per year was set.Optimal formulations of one plant-based beef patty were determined with a raw material cost of around $3.54 per serving and $0.41 per second in distribution and storage costs.The optimal market size was 0.083% of a total market consumption of 84.6 million kg of meat alternatives consumed annually in 2021.

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.
