Abstract
An embedded multiple-case study was conducted with six able-bodied participants to evaluate the potential of electrodermal activity (EDA) as an alternative access pathway to electronic aids to daily living. Electrodermal signals were recorded while participants alternated between rest and three different mental or breathing exercises. In a subsequent experimental session, the exercise exerting the greatest influence on EDA was used to volitionally generate an 'active' state. Two classification algorithms, namely, a probabilistic classifier and a handcrafted rule base were developed and tailored to each individual's physiological patterns to discriminate between participant states. Through cross-validation, participant state was correctly identified to an accuracy exceeding 80% using either classification algorithm. This result demonstrates that consciously controlled EDA could conceivably serve as a binary switch, and encourages further research towards EDA-based alternative access for people who are locked-in.

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
