Abstract
Over-the-horizon (OTH) radar and automatic identification system (AIS) are commonly used in the surveillance of maritime areas. This paper presents a method, which includes tracking and association algorithms, for fusing the information from these two types of systems into an overall maritime picture. Data to be fused consists of asynchronous track estimates from the OTH system and measurements obtained from AIS. The data available at the fusion center, as output of real world systems, contained incomplete information, compared to theoretical tracking and fusion algorithms. A method to estimate the missing information in the input data is described. Results obtained using real data as well as simulated data are presented. This type of fusion provides overall pictures of maritime areas, with benefits for surveillance against military threats, as well as threats to exclusive economic zones.

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
