Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper proposes a research agenda for Living Labs as after 20 years of Living Lab-practice, theory building is not up to par with the steady growth and expansion of practice in terms of topics, sectors and sheer number of practitioners and initiatives. By means of a literature review, a workshop with the Living Lab research community (N=60) and a self-assessment of Living Labs on key topics (N=70) we were able to identify the following main action points to be tackled by future Living Lab research: 1. Linking the different levels of Living Labs to existing theories and literature streams; 2. Approaches to increase impact, value creation & scaling of Living Labs; 3. Harmonization & differentiation of Living Labs; 4. Long(er)-term user & stakeholder involvement; 5. Inclusive involvement. Especially in terms of impact, there is a big demand from practitioners’ perspective which could be addressed by first emphasizing the harmonisation process of the different Living Labs elements and terminology and subsequently theorising and conceptualising the current diversity in terms of themes and topics.

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.
