Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Surfaces exposed to outdoor and even indoor environments, especially in urban settings, develop a coating comprised of chemical compounds deposited from the overlying atmosphere and products of reactions occurring within this coating. Early work recognized the potential of this coating to reflect the local atmospheric concentrations of pollutants. More recently, the potential of such coatings ("urban grime") to participate in active exchange of important atmospheric oxidants and their precursors has been explored. Here, I will present my perspective on the history of urban grime chemistry studies and where the future may lie in these.

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 distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
