Abstract
This paper integrates the multi-region input-output model (MRIO) and data envelopment analysis (DEA) methods to analyze the freight transport efficiency in Europe. Social, economic, and environmental influences were combined into a sustainable efficiency rating of the freight transport sector of Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands. First, the freight transport sector's carbon footprint (CFP) was quantified using the MRIO model. The lifecycle-based CFP emissions of freight transport activities were assessed using a dataset from 2000 to 2018. Nineteen stochastic model-based MRIO lifecycle assessments were built for each country. Secondly, sixty instances of DEA models were created using a linear program for each mode in the selected countries. Thirdly, the sustainable efficiency scores were determined for each freight transport mode in each country over four periods: 2000–2004, 2005–2009, 2010–2014, and 2015–2018. The results illustrate that the sustainable efficiency score of inland, water, and air transport modes ranged from 0.38 to 1.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
