Fungalpedia, an illustrated compendium of the fungi and fungus-like taxa
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Fungalpedia is an online illustrated compendium of the fungi and fungus-like taxa.In this database we provide notes on the genera and higher taxa of fungi and definitions and descriptions of terms generally used in mycology.Where possible the notes are enhanced with plates and drawings to make the terms easier to understand.In the case of genera, we provide 1) notes on habit, host and lifestyle, 2) higher level classification, 3) genes and other evidence to support the genus, 4) main characters, 5) a critical assessment of the genus and its placement, and 6) photographic plates and/or drawings of the main characters of the genus.For higher taxa we give similar information but a drawing will not be provided.For the various terms we provide definitions and explanations and diagrams to facilitate understanding.We also provide accounts of eminent mycologists both living and deceased.We also provide notes on methodology and biotechnology.Although many of the entries are by invited authors and published in scientific papers, other interested persons are welcome to contribute to entries and/or modify existing entries.Those interested should contact the lead author.
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.
