Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT What are the implications of mass transit improvements for residential income segregation within cities? I observe large income differences in households' usage of and residential proximity to “fast” versus “slow” transit (e.g., subways vs. buses on shared lanes). Consistent with these observations, I propose a theoretical framework to characterize the relationship between income segregation and the spatial distribution of transit speeds and travel mode choices within cities. I find that transit improvements that would maximize transit ridership tend to reduce income segregation when improving “slow” transit but increase income segregation when improving “fast” transit.

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.
