Abstract
A novel finite-difference time-domain (FDTD)-based method is developed to analyze 3-D microwave circuits with uncertain parameters, such as variability and tolerances in the physical dimensions and geometry introduced by manufacturing processes. The proposed method incorporates geometrical variation into the FDTD algorithm by appropriately parameterizing and distorting the rectilinear and curvilinear computational lattices. Generalized polynomial chaos is used to expand the time-domain electric and magnetic fields in terms of orthogonal polynomial chaos basis functions of the uncertain mesh parameters. The technique is validated by modeling several microstrip circuits with uncertain physical dimensions and geometry. The computed S-parameters are compared against Monte Carlo simulations, and good agreement for the statistics is observed over 0-25 GHz. A considerable computational advantage over the Monte Carlo method is also achieved.

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
