Abstract
Shane Harriman could never have predicted his research would earn an award or bring him to the mountains of northern Italy. Raised in Orrington, Maine, Harriman has always had an affinity for the outdoors. After graduating from John Bapst Memorial High School in 2022, he chose to attend the University of Maine for its comfortable proximity to home and extensive history program. However, his time in Orono has led him away from the Maine woods and towards the search for lost history. As a history major and anthropology minor, Harriman was looking for senior-year field research to round out his resume. He went to his professors for recommendations and they directed him towards STEMPA, an Italian-based research project whose name in English translates to Excavation, Remote Sensing, Study of Materials and Landscape of the Sette Comuni Plateau.
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.
How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
