Abstract
In this paper we define operators based on local vector space representation for detecting changes in images when the illumination of the scenes varies. The difference image contains information from objects not present in original images. Most change image detection algorithms assume that the illumination of a scene will remain invariable. But when the illumination conditions of a scene cannot be controlled, image processing algorithms must be adapted. Here we propose methods based on a local vector model when the illumination of a scene may vary locally and when no knowledge about the illumination parameters is available. We evaluate three operators for image difference independently of local changes of intensity. In addition, all difference local operators are defined in terms of correlations which can be useful for optical implementations using conventional Vander Lugt or joint transform correlators.

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
