Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Seven year old Zac Bissett has astounded National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) officers with his recent discovery of the threatened mint bush Prostanthera askania in Bouddi National Park.Found only on the Central Coast of New South Wales, P. askania is listed as endangered under the 7hreatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (NSW) and has not previously been found in any conservation reserve.Local Macmasters Beach residents Zac, and his great aunt Maureen Findlay, discovered the plant while walking in bushland in Bouddi National Park.Zac noticed a nice 'mint' smell so he and his great aunt investigated.As the mint bush was not one that Maureen had seen before she referred to a plant identification book.Discovering that the find was likely to be something of significance, Maureen approached NPWS _ Bush Regeneration Co-ordinator Deb Holloman to confirm the identification.NPWS Acting Regional Manager Jenni Farrell said that staff were amazed upon hearing of Zac's discovery.

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.
