Feature Story: Annual Lecture Examines New Directions in Policing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the complex world of policing, new approaches are constantly emerging and evolving. Dr. Scott H. Decker, Foundation Professor at the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Arizona State University, will discuss “Smart Policing” as the latest conceptualization of policing in North America when he delivers the annual Dr. Gordon Wicijowski Law Foundation of Saskatchewan Chair in Police Studies Lecture at the University of Regina. By examining the foundations of Smart Policing and its emphasis on the integration of evidence-based research into law enforcement strategies, Dr. Decker will explain how this model represents a valuable new direction in policing and crime reduction.

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, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
