Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

night which brought the orioles and most of the resident warblers, including the Blue-winged Warbler's relative, ¾. chrysoptera.Mr. Faxon and I were especially interested in the presence of this warbler.In ' The Auk ' for October, 1907 (p.444), Mr. Faxon recorded a male Brewster's Warbler which had spent the preceding summer in Lexington, and in the Memoirs of Museum of Comp.Zool., 1910 (XL, pp.57-78), he gave a detailed account of two female Brewster's Warblers which, mated with V. chrysoptera, bred during the summer of 1910, in the same locality where the 1907 bird was found.Brewster's Warblers have returned to this locality each year since 1910.In plumage tbe offspring of all these birds have followed the laws of Mendelian heredity and the inference is that V. pinus has bred on some former occasion in the vicinity and that these Brewster's Warblers are a relic of cross breeding.However, with the exception of "A nesting of the Blue-winged Warbler in Massachusetts," by Horace W. Wright (Auk, XXVI, No. 4, October, 1909) in Sudbury, twenty miles to the south, there was, until now, no record of the occurrence of V. pinus for this immediate region.The appearance this spring of a pure Blue-winged Warbler within half a mile of the Brewster's breeding ground is a bit of corrobor•tive evidence that from time to time pure blood may be introduced into eastern Massachusetts.Mr. Faxon and I believe that the present bi•'d cannot have been • descendant of a local V. leucobronchialis, for the reason that, without exception, the Brewster's Warblers in Lexington sing the V. chrysoptera song.--W•soRM.

Not 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.
