Findings from Environment and Climate Change Canada's open science engagements: Identified user needs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Canada’s 2018-2020 National Action Plan on Open Government (2018-2020 NAP) provides Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) with a mandate to “promote open science and actively solicit feedback from Canadians and federal scientists on their needs with respect to open data and open science” (open science milestone 5.4). To deliver on this commitment, the 2018-2020 NAP proposes two steps: 1) holding 10 open science engagement sessions with federal scientists and invited Canadians across the country, and; 2) publishing a report on identified user needs. Between March 12, 2019 and February 26, 2021, ECCC has investigated the open science needs of federal open science users through direct engagements with the public as well as with federal scientists. This report summarizes ECCC’s findings and fulfills Milestone 5.4 of the 2018-2020 NAP.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
