A construction of binary Golay sequence pairs from odd‐length Barker sequences
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Binary Golay sequence pairs exist for lengths 2, 10 and 26 and, by Turyn's product construction, for all lengths of the form 2a10b26c where a, b, c are non‐negative integers. Computer search has shown that all inequivalent binary Golay sequence pairs of length less than 100 can be constructed from five “seed” pairs, of length 2, 10, 10, 20 and 26. We give the first complete explanation of the origin of the length 26 binary Golay seed pair, involving a Barker sequence of length 13 and a related Barker sequence of length 11. This is the special case m=1 of a general construction for a length 16m+10 binary Golay pair from a related pair of Barker sequences of length 8m+5 and 8m+3, for integer m≥0. In the case m=0, we obtain an alternative explanation of the origin of one of the length 10 binary Golay seed pairs. The construction cannot produce binary Golay sequence pairs for m>1, having length greater than 26, because there are no Barker sequences of odd length greater than 13. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
