Abstract
This paper presents a novel error-free (infinite-precision) architecture for the fast implementation of both 8/spl times/8 2D discrete cosine transform and inverse DCT. The architecture uses a new algebraic integer quantization of a 1D radix-8 DCT that allows the separable computation of a 2D 8/spl times/8 DCT without any intermediate number representation conversions. This is a considerable improvement on previously introduced algebraic integer encoding techniques to compute both DCT and IDCT which eliminates the requirements to approximate the transformation matrix elements by obtaining their exact representations and hence mapping the transcendental functions without any errors. Using this encoding scheme, an entire 8/spl times/8 1D DCT-SQ (scalar quantization) algorithm can be implemented with only 24 adders. Apart from the multiplication-free nature, this new mapping scheme fits to this algorithm, eliminating any computational or quantization errors and resulting short-word-length and high-speed-design.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
