Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In 2021, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) Act received royal assent in Canada, further affirming inherent rights for Indigenous peoples (First Nations, Inuit and Métis). Despite this and a constitutional recognition of Aboriginal rights in 1982, the Métis have yet to have their right to health recognised. The prioritisation of pan-Indigenous approaches to addressing inequities in Canada neglects to recognise the collective rights (exercised through a governing body, nation, tribal community, etc.) that diversifies Indigenous rights from other human rights.

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.
