Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

sva 77 Branta canadensis.--AtPrince Edward Island on September 6, ?, and 8, i892, Canada Geese gathered at Hogg Island flats, at the mouth of Richmond Bay, to a greater extent than has ever been known before at this season of the year, estimates of the number being impossible.On September 9 they rose up in the air, and remained in sight some thirty.minutes.As watched fi-om a distance of about two miles they had the appearance ofa large thunder cloud over a mile in length.Mr. William Everett of Dorchester, Mass., who visits Prince Edward Island every season has ldndly furnished me with the above information.Mr. H.G. Nutter of Boston informs me that he saw at Ponkapog Pond, Mass., Oct. 17, I892, four flocks of Canada Geese flying southwest.One flock contained seven birds; one, eleven; one, thirty-txvo; and the other, forty to fifty.--GEoRGEH. MACKAY, Arantucket, Mass.Branta bernicla at Nantucket, Massachusetts.--I am informed by Mr. Charles E.

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.
