Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the weighted maximal planar graph (WMPG) problem. Given a complete, edge-weighted, simple graph, the WMPG problem involves finding a subgraph with the highest sum of edge weights that is maximal planar, namely, it can be embedded in the plane without any of its edges intersecting, and no additional edge can be added to the subgraph without violating its planarity. We present a new integer linear programming (ILP) model for this problem. We then develop a cutting-plane algorithm to solve the WMPG problem based on the proposed ILP model. This algorithm enables the problem to be solved more efficiently than previously reported algorithms. New upper bounds are also provided, which are useful in evaluating the quality of heuristic solutions or in generating initial solutions for meta-heuristics. Computational results are reported for a set of 417 test instances of size varying from 6 to 100 nodes including 105 instances from the literature and 312 randomly generated instances. The computational results indicate that instances with up to 24 nodes can be solved optimally in reasonable computational time and the new upper bounds for larger instances significantly improve existing upper bounds.

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
