How the score of 49 was calculated
| Factor | Share of maximum | Points |
|---|---|---|
| NoveltyRubric level 2/4 (Moderate). Heuristic (automated): first published 2 days ago. | 7.5/15 | |
| Technical significanceRubric level 3/4 (High). AI-assisted (openai/gpt-oss-20b), pending human review: Uses a large multimodal backbone with a joint schema head to produce probabilities for multiple question types in a single pass. Evidence: “It reads the state as text, JSON, images, or video, and returns a probability for every allowed option of every question in a single forward pass.” | 11.3/15 | |
| Developer relevanceRubric level 3/4 (High). AI-assisted (openai/gpt-oss-20b), pending human review: Provides a ready‑to‑use multimodal decision model with a simple API and no text generation, suitable for many business workflows. Evidence: “The Clef API is fully compatible with Jev and SystemOne.” | 11.3/15 | |
| Adoption velocityIndependent integrations: unknown (0 pts). Hugging Face likes: 366.8 per day since creation; full marks at 1000/day, log-scaled (4.3/5). | 4.3/10 | |
| Community momentumFewer than three periods of activity data, or no baseline activity to compare against. | 0/10 | |
| Source credibilityPrimary source present; mean source-tier weight 1.00 (primary 1.0, secondary 0.7, community 0.35). | 10/10 | |
| Cross-source confirmationNo independent publisher has confirmed this yet. | 0/10 | |
| Evidence strengthMet 2/4: primary source ✓, runnable artifact (code, weights or package) ✓, reproducible or independent benchmark ?, technical documentation or paper ✗. 1 unknown (scored 0). | 5/10 | |
