Abstract
Scientific data visualization provides scientists and engineers with a deeper insight and greater understanding about physical phenomena through the use of graphical tools. Individuals are able to identify patterns embedded in data sets using visual cues such as color and shape, rather than directly searching through a vast volume of numbers. The visualization algorithm described in this paper utilizes a spherical self-organizing feature map (SOFM) to automatically cluster and develop a well-defined topology of arbitrary data vectors, based on a pre-defined measure of similarity, and generate a three-dimensional color-coded surface model that reflects cluster variations. Implementation of this self-organizing surface geometry for data visualization applications is illustrated by examining the graphical forms created for a small synthetic test data set and a large environmental data-base. The proposed methodology provides the researcher with a new tool to encode information into shape and easily transfer the geometric model to an immersive virtual reality (IVR) environment for interactive information analysis.

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
