Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The veterinary and animal welfare fields are tasked to respond to the urgent need for improved access to veterinary care (AVC) for underserved populations across the nation. We conducted an initial survey and an iterative selection of priority questions using a modified Delphi method among a committee of experts in AVC to identify the 20 questions with the greatest potential to inform and advance our crucial work in AVC, if answered. The results of this project produced expansive questions focused on equity, engaging communities and pet owners, supporting practitioners, and delivering care. We then provided a landscape of existing research with the goal of supporting academics, practitioners, and communities in prioritizing their research and program development agendas, ultimately advancing AVC efforts around the country.

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.
