Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

y research in Canadian Studies began in 1996 when, as a recent graduate of English and French departments, I was strongly encouraged to become interested in Canada.Several centres for Canadian Studies were opened in Central Europe at that time, including at my own university.In the last 28 years, I have attended over 30 conferences in Canadian Studies, mostly in Europe, some in Canada.I completed five fellowships at the University of Toronto and the University of British Columbia and have a good network of contacts in the Canadianist community.My reflections on the current crisis of Canadian Studies, and my hopes for new opportunities, are therefore based on almost three decades of academic activity; however, they are necessarily limited to a European perspective.

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.
