Middleton, one of the leading pioneers of sedimentology. Gerry, as he was known to his many friends and colleagues, was born in South Africa of English parents, and was educated in England, obtaining his Ph.D. in geology from Imperial College in 1954. For his thesis research, he mapped an area of Devonian rocks in Devon, and one of his earliest papers (1959) is a taxonomic documentation of the tetracorals contained in those rocks. Immediately upon graduation, he emigrated to Canada where he worked first for California Standard...

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
