Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

State space models (SSMs) are fundamental tools for modeling sequential data.They are broadly used across engineering disciplines like signal processing and control theory, as well as scientific domains like neuroscience (Vyas et al., 2020), genetics (Durbin et al., 1998), ecology (Patterson et al., 2008), computational ethology (Weinreb et al., 2024), economics (Jacquier et al., 2002), and climate science (Ott et al., 2004).Fast and robust tools for state space modeling are crucial to researchers in all of these application areas.

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.
