Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Buying a new home is a significant investment usually undertaken only once or twice in a lifetime.Therefore, today's consumers are cautious and selective when buying a house, because it must satisfy their personal requirements in terms of customisation, product quality and affordability.Housing manufacturers in North America claim that they can customise a home to the same extent as conventional homebuilders.Their design process for the creation of customised homes, however, does not reflect the advantages of industrialisation of housing, in which mass-production of housing components helps reduce the design and production costs, while in-factory production ensures a steady supply of quality products.'Mass Customisation' is a seemingly contradictory term, for how can one combine mass production and customisation?In 1987, this revolutionary concept was first introduced in North America, recognised as a means to produce customised products on a mass basis.In many industries, the concept of mass customisation is applied to product design in order to satisfy the unique demands of each consumer.The housing industry is no exception.Today, Japanese housing manufacturers have already succeeded in mass customising housing, and their high-quality, reasonably priced homes have a good reputation.This paper examines how Japanese housing manufacturers apply the mass customising approach to improve their products, and the public's perception of industrialised housing.The authors surveyed five manufacturers on their mass customising techniques by visiting their manufacturing plants in order to analyse their production capability.The authors found that the manufacturers have developed a 'mass custom design system' in order to

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.
