Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Internet has changed significantly business operation across national borders. However, existing literature about its impacts on export channels remains limited. This inductive study explored the Internet's impacts on the relations between 13 Chinese manufacturers and their export intermediaries in Canada. Findings from this study suggest that export intermediaries that provide financing and credit, intensive after-sales services, and important distribution infrastructure survive the Internet while those that offer traditional market-sensing and customer-linking services can hardly survive the Internet.

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.
