Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A collaborative and holistic approach is essential to achieving a healthy and resilient aquatic ecosystem. Apoqnmatulti’k (Mi’kmaw for “we help each other”) is a partnership that involves the Unama’ki Institute of Natural Resources, the Confederacy of Mainland Mi’kmaq, commercial fisher Darren Porter, the Ocean Tracking Network, Acadia University, Dalhousie University, and Fisheries and Oceans Canada-Science. Apoqnmatulti’k is founded on the shared participation of Mi’kmaw, local, and Western scientific knowledge holders, aiming to better understand valued aquatic species in Pitu’pa’q (Bras d’Or Lake) and Pekwitapa’qek (Minas Basin). Guided by the principle of Etuaptmumk (Two-Eyed Seeing), Apoqnmatulti’k serves as a model for how the incorporation of diverse perspectives can enhance knowledge, ensure transparency and accessibility of information, and transform fisheries management and conservation. This paper focuses on the challenges, lessons learned, and achievements derived from collaboration and the development of a strong partnership.

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.
