Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The West End, a novel set in Vancouver, Canada in the years directly preceding the handover of Hong Kong in 1997, is the story of two sisters, Claire and Hannah Stephen, whose love of art and the environment is challenged by the aggressive and sometimes destructive business ethic of the Wongs, a nouveau riche family from Hong Kong. When the Wongs tear down the Stephens' old family home and replace it with a 'monster house,' a struggle between the families ensues. Nonetheless, the possibility of romance slowly burgeons between Claire and Mark Wong. Through the clash of values, the novel dramatizes the fate of Vancouver at the end of the millennium when a booming economy, skyrocketing housing prices, and rapidly accelerating immigration conspired to change the city forever, and through the precarious relationship between Claire and Mark, the novel asks the often unasked questions that arise at the intersection of race and love.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

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.
