Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This brief is based on the following published work:Huey, L., & Ferguson, L. (2024). ‘No one wants to end up on YouTube’: Sousveillance and ‘cop-baiting’ in Canadian policing. Policing and Society. https://doi.org/10.1080/10439463.2024.2329239APB The political landscape has shifted, and police are increasingly the target of activist actions aimed at discrediting the institution and its members. Police must be more proactive in managing communications during political and other events. External communications – particularly monitoring and responding to social media posts across multiple platforms – should be a key component of incident and public order command and not an afterthought. Combating misinformation requires faster and/or real-time information release when possible, including photographs, live streaming, body-worn and dash camera footage, and other videos from events.

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.
