ScholarFace: Scanning Faces, Discovering Minds
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In today's data-driven world, quick access to scholarly info is vital. However, current academic search engines face challenges such as restricted text-based searching, uncertainties related to researcher names, absence of contact details, and lack of profile summaries. To mitigate these issues, we introduce ScholarFace, an innovative concept that could transform how we search for academic knowledge. It uses face recognition and language generation technology to spot scholars in photos effortlessly, giving us rich profiles and summaries of their work. It also offers an interactive chat element for users to get more insights about a scholar, reducing online search efforts. We take privacy and ethics issues seriously and ensure ScholarFace complies with rules and regulations. With ScholarFace, we hope to create a smarter, effortless, more connected scholarly world.
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.

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.
