Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Best known for his Nobel prize-winning work on derivatives pricing, Myron Scholes made significant contributions to a wide range of topics in financial economics, from asset pricing to dividend policy and tax incentives. Born 1 July 1941 in Timmins, Ontario, Canada, he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Economics from McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario in 1962. He then entered the MBA course at the University of Chicago, transferring to the Ph.D. course after his second year. He earned his MBA in 1964 and his Ph.D. in 1968, writing his dissertation on the effects of information and signalling on the shape of the demand curves for traded securities. Upon finishing graduate studies he took a position as Assistant Professor of Finance at the Sloan School of Management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After five years he moved to the Graduate School of Business at the University of Chicago. He was first Visiting Professor, and then in 1974 he accepted a permanent position. He stayed there until 1981, when he became Visiting Professor at Stanford University for two years, becoming a permanent faculty member of the university’s Business School and Law Schools in 1983, remaining there until his retirement in 1996.

Full frame distilled prediction

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.
