Abstract
Over the last decade or so, the health-care industry in the United States, Canada, and around the world has started to solve important problems using traditional MS/OR models and methods, such as mathematical programming and simulation. Healthcare practitioners are just now embracing new techniques, such as data mining coupled with highpowered computers, to analyze problems involving enormous data sets. In recent years, the results of MS/OR efforts have been significant and have begun to positively affect how health care is delivered. In this special issue, we highlight and document success stories in applying MS/OR models and methods to actual problems in health care. These success stories could be tool oriented, such as describing a simulation model for patient flow, or they may focus on strategic, policy-level applications, such as deciding where a government should allocate its healthcare funds and how it should distribute its resources. Authors must specifically describe the benefits of the application and the lessons that were learned. A verification letter from the relevant organization that attests to the actual use or impact of the model and the resulting benefits must be submitted with the paper. To help prepare your paper, please review the Interfaces Instructions to Authors at http://interfaces. pubs.informs.org/guidelines.htm. Papers must be submitted online using Manuscript Central at http:// mc.manuscriptcentral.com/inte. All papers will be refereed. The deadline for submission is September 15, 2007.

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
