Abstract
Abstract The interpretation of helicopter-borne electromagnetic (EM) data is commonly based on the transformation of the data to the apparent resistivity under the assumption that the dielectric permittivity is that of free space and so displacement currents may be ignored. While this is an acceptable approach for many applications, it may not yield a reliable value for the apparent resistivity in resistive areas at the high frequencies now available commercially for some helicopter EM systems. We analyze the feasibility of mapping spatial variations in the dielectric permittivity and resistivity using a high-frequency helicopter-borne EM system. The effect of the dielectric permittivity on the EM data is to decrease the in-phase component and increase the quadrature component. This results in an unwarranted increase in the apparent resistivity (when permittivity is neglected) for the pseudolayer half-space model, or a decrease in the apparent resistivity for the homogeneous half-space model. To avoid this problem, we use the in-phase and quadrature responses at the highest frequency to estimate the apparent dielectric permittivity because this maximizes the response of displacement currents. Having an estimate of the apparent dielectric permittivity then allows the apparent resistivity to be computed for all frequencies. A field example shows that the permittivity can be well resolved in a resistive environment when using high-frequency helicopter EM data.

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
