Abstract
To improve the characterization of motor impairment, we compared the sensitivities of a phase plane metric with temporal domain measures derived from integrated squared jerk (ISJ). Five subjects with stroke and a cohort of 21 neurologically intact volunteers performed self-paced, isolated elbow flexions. Analysis of angular trajectories from the stroke group revealed that temporal domain metrics failed to detect a performance deficit at the p < .05 level, while the phase plane metric did resolve a deficit (p < .01). When applied to a subset of movements with arrest periods, the phase measure also uniquely identified impairment (Wilcoxon rank-sum test, p < .001). Finally, when tested on a data-driven model, the phase measure, but not temporal metrics, increased monotonically with the severity of trajectory distortions. We conclude that motion smoothness can be accurately measured in the phase plane.

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
