Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The summer of 2021 was the beginning of my experience as a researcher from Emily Carr University of Art & Design on a project that connected me with other researchers across Canada. The project was titled Research in Residence: Arts’ Civic Impact, and was an initiative in collaboration with Mass Culture, the Canada Council for the Arts, the Culture Statistics Working Group, the Ontario Trillium Foundation, and the Toronto Arts Foundation. Each researcher had their own area of interest, with my focus being on researching and exploring the innovative ways of reframing research methods and connecting with communities in the arts sector and academic institutions to align with methods derived from an Indigenous way of gathering information.

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.
