Abstract
Naturally occurring isotopes of radon in indoor air are identified as the second leading cause of lung cancer after tobacco smoking. Winnipeg had the highest radon ((222)Rn) concentration among 18 Canadian cities surveyed in the past. There is great interest to know the current radon as well as thoron ((220)Rn) concentrations in Winnipeg homes. Therefore, radon-thoron discrimination detectors were deployed in 117 houses for a period of 3 months. The results confirmed that thoron is present at detectable levels in about half of the Winnipeg homes and radon remains significantly higher than the national average. In this study, radon concentrations ranged from 20 to 483 Bq m(-3) with a geometric mean of 112 Bq m(-3) and a geometric standard deviation of 2.07. It is estimated that 20% of Winnipeg homes could have radon concentrations above the Canadian indoor radon guideline of 200 Bq m(-3). This conclusion is similar to the previous estimation made 20 y ago. Thoron concentrations were below the detection limit in 60 homes. Among the homes with detectable thoron concentrations, the values varied from 5 to 297 Bq m(-3), the geometric mean and standard deviation were 21 Bq m(-3) and 2.53, respectively.

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
