Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Illegal migration involves people moving away from a country of origin to another country, where they reside in violation of local citizenship laws. Entry to the receiving country occurs without authorization from the receiving government and often occurs at places other than the legal entry ports. The literature shows that illegal immigrants in most countries seek better livelihoods for themselves and their families, and share characteristics that are closely related to their position of insecurity, fear, and precarious existence. Examples from southern Europe, the USA, and Canada illustrate a few commonalities as well as differences between undocumented migrants. The feminization of migration, as well as child migration, is also discussed.

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.
