Workshop Report: OCSDNet Imagining a Feminist Open Science
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Open and Collaborative Science in Development Network (OCSDNet), funded by IDRC and DFID from 2014-2017, had the key objective of gathering evidence to better understand how and whether an open and collaborative approach to scientific knowledge production could contribute to development outcomes across a variety of social, economic and political contexts. As OCSDNet began to develop a more comprehensive framework of OCS, we came to realize that much of the groundwork looking at inclusive science practices and theory has been laid by other scholars in a variety of fields, especially feminist postcolonial technoscience scholars. With OCSDNet coming to a close in its current configuration, it was timely to bring a small subset of scholars and practitioners together to discuss what can be set in motion through situated feminist open science projects in diverse global contexts. The following report highlights the proceedings of the two-day workshop which took place from June 20-21 immediately preceding the Electronic Publishing (ELPub) conference held in Toronto, Canada.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

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, unvalidatedLabeled directly by 2 models reading the full record.
The models disagree on parts of this classification; every voice is preserved in the section at the end of the page.
