Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A large co-ordinated program of work is underway exploring techniques for integrated landuse transport modelling, including elements of agent-based micro-simulation. The intentionis to demonstrate the practical viability of these techniques and help provide guidance intheir further development and use in policy analysis considering transport policy and theimpacts of transport on society. This has given rise to a number of questions about the natureof the behaviour of the agents being considered (including people, households, businessestablishments and developers) and about potential methods for implementing practicalrepresentations of this behaviour. This paper describes the modelling system and techniquesbeing considered, and sets out some of the questions about behaviour and its representationthat have arisen together with some of the more promising ideas and approaches beingconsidered for addressing these questions.

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.
