Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Unbalanced production rates of activities and abundant resource allocation are the leading reason behind bottlenecks in processes and have been one of the causes that negatively affect projects leading to wasted resources. Many industries suffer from unbalanced resource workloads, where manufacturing takt times at some workstations are out of sync with preceding stations, consequently leading to an abruption in the workflow between activities. This research aims to assess the current state of the manufacturing process of a wall assembly line from material cutting to installation, identifying bottlenecks, and creating a framework that would contrast both cycles to finally propose a solution through simulation. A case was studied to propose innovative methods to improve the process flow and to eliminate any waste generated by bottlenecks. This will not only reduce the process duration but will also significantly increase cost expenditure since the amount of idle time and resources will be reduced.

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.
