ResearchScope - A Federated Search Service for Irish Open Access Research
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ResearchScope\nTo mark open access week 2009, (See: http://www.openaccessweek.org/ ),WIT Libraries have launched a federated harvesting and discovery service called ResearchScope. ResearchScope is a national portal designed to raise the profile of Open Access research in Ireland - by making it more visible. \nIt works by harvesting information from research repositories, which present their records in an agreed standard called OAI-DC. By pulling this information together in to one index and re-presenting them via ResearchScope as well as the original home repositories, the information is made more visible to web search engines. It is worth noting that ResearchScope itself presents the aggregated data in this way and it can therefore be indexed itself by other services. See http://www.repository.wit.ie/index.php/oai?verb=ListSets\nResearchScope is based on existing software produced by the Public Knowledge Project, a Canadian group based in Simon Frasier University. (See: http://pkp.sfu.ca/ ) With minor modifications to the layout and the addition of a graphical 'word cloud' search, ( See: http://www.quintura.com/ )we have produced an appealing and useful single point of access to open access research in Ireland. We would to organically incorporate tools and services as time goes on.\nThe widespread global interest in the movement toward open, public access to scholarly research results is steadily gaining momentum and ResearchSchope is also an attempt to broaden awareness/understanding of Open Access to research, on the part of research funders, the Irish higher education community and the general public - who pay for this research with their hard-earned taxes. \nSee: http://researchscope.net/

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
