Abstract
In this work, we investigate architectures that can provide the benefits of dedicated hardware implementations and the flexibility of software defined environments. We call this new approach a data defined environment, in which hardware and software scales together based on workload variability to provide state-of-the-art hardware energy-efficiency. An integrated architecture for rapidly implementing efficient large-scale Digital Signal Processing (DSP) functions is presented. The target DSP functions are represented by an application space with one or more dimensions and several ensembles of Adaptive Computing Fabrics (ACF). It is shown that the proposed fabric allows achieving deterministic performance exceeding 245GOPs/mW for data workload characterized by high dynamic variability such as FFT of various size including 64, 128, 512, 1,024, 2,048, 4,098, 8,192, 262,144 and 746,496. Experimental results show improvements on the order of 1000× in power efficiency when compared to published alternatives for several applications, including H.265 High-Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), Bluetooth, LTE, xDSL/DVB, WLAN and mm-Waves Wireless Personal Networks (WPAN).

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
