Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability and agreement between human raters (novice, intermediate, and expert) and TuMeke Risk Suite when assessing work with the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA). Twenty-one videos portraying veterinarians performing an equine radiograph were assessed with REBA by human raters and TuMeke Risk Suite (ergonomic artificial intelligence software). Intra-rater reliability of the final REBA score was highest for TuMeke Risk Suite (ICC = 1.0), then the expert rater (ICC = 0.89 (0.78-0.95)), and lowest for the novice rater (ICC = 0.51 (0.25-0.74)). Agreement between the expert rater and TuMeke Risk Suite was highest for scores of the trunk, leg, and upper arm, and lowest for the neck, wrist, and lower arm. The REBA tool in TuMeke Risk Suite may be of benefit to less experienced users to enhance reliability of their REBA assessments, especially when the trunk, legs, and upper arm are of primary interest.

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.
