Abstract
High performance SIMD text processing using the method of parallel bit streams is introduced with a case study of UTF-8 to UTF-16 transcoding. A forward transform converts byte-oriented character stream data into eight parallel bit streams. Decoding, validation and computation of UTF-8 indexed UTF-16 bit streams are performed using bit-parallel logic and shifting operations. Conversion from UTF-8 indexing to UTF-16 indexing is performed using parallel bit deletion. The inverse transform is applied to yield high and low UTF-16 byte streams which are then merged. Combined with optimization techniques for blocks of ASCII data, speed-ups of 3 to 25 times are achieved on commodity processors compared with optimized byte-at-a-time code. Further applications of the method of parallel bit streams to bulk text processing applications are briefly discussed along with future prospects for the combination of intraregister and intrachip parallelism on multicore processors.

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
