Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The urban unemployment rate is a significant economic indicator that has long drawn researchers’ interest. Monitoring and predicting changes in the unemployment rate can help in understanding economic trends and implementing appropriate measures. This article aims to forecast urban unemployment rates in China. By collecting previous surveyed urban unemployment rates in China, this article will generate and compare various ARIMA models in order to identify the one with the best forecasting accuracy. The forecast results of the selected model state that the unemployment rate will remain almost unchanged, around 5%, in the second half of 2024 and throughout 2025. Fluctuations are expected to be between 0.01% and 0.03%. The number is much lower than the peak during the pandemic, but it is still above the historical average. This article argues that China’s economy is gradually stabilizing, and the post-pandemic measures have been effective but are still insufficient. The government still needs to implement additional actions.

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.
