Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this article, we study the moment-based test procedure for a mixture distribution for the Natural exponential family with quadratic variance functions (NEF-QVF) family proposed by Ning et al. (2009b Ning, W., Zhang, S. G. and Yu, C. 2009b. A moment-based test for the homogeneity in mixture natural exponential family with quadratic variance functions. Statistical and Probability Letters, 79: 828–834. [Crossref] , [Google Scholar]) in the small sample size scenario. We derive the approximation for the null distribution of the test statistic by the Edgeworth expansion. The simulations are conducted for a binomial mixture distribution, which includes the situation corresponding to the detection of the linkage in the genetic analysis, with different sample sizes and family sizes at various significance levels. The simulation results show that our test performs reasonably well. We also apply the proposed method to the real clinical data to verify the significant difference between two drug treatments. The critical values associated with a binomial mixture distribution are also provided.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
