Turning Legal Obligations into Safety: Norway’s Police Risk Assessment System for IPV Under Article 51 IC
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Istanbul Convention requires the police to have a robust system for effectively and systematically preventing repeat incidents of intimate partner violence (IPV) and for protecting the victim. Performing risk assessments is crucial to this end. Despite having had the risk assessment tool SARA:SV at their disposal since 2013, Norwegian police have not handled IPV cases as they are obliged to by the Convention. From 2022 onward the risk assessment should have been performed by a preventive risk analyst, but as this expertise is a scarce resource, the police system lacks robustness. Robustness may be achieved by using the capacity of frontline police officers. In that case, other risk assessment tools that are easier to score than SARA:SV should be made available, e.g., actuarial tools such as the Canadian ODARA or the Spanish VioGén system.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
