Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We propose a method, funWeightClust, based on a family of parsimonious models for clustering heterogeneous functional linear regression data. These models extend cluster weighted models to functional data, and they allow for multivariate functional responses and predictors. The proposed methodology follows the approach used by the the functional high dimensional data clustering (funHDDC) method. We construct an expectation maximization (EM) algorithm for parameter estimation. Using simulated and benchmark data we show that funWeightClust outperforms funHDDC and several two-steps clustering methods. We also use funWeightClust to analyze traffic patterns in Edmonton, Canada.

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.
