Abstract
Abstract Summary: Models were developed to simulate gas‐phase ethylene/hexene copolymerization using a silica‐supported (BuCp) 2 ZrCl 2 catalyst in a semi‐batch laboratory reactor. The models are able to predict ethylene consumption rate, gas composition drift during the experimental runs, as well as number‐and weight‐average molecular weight, and short‐chain branching levels, and triad sequence distributions of copolymer removed from the reactor at the end of each run. A single‐site model was first developed, but it failed to accurately predict the molecular weight data and its distribution. Sequentially, a two‐site model was built to improve model predictions. Parameter estimability analysis was performed to guide model simplification and to ensure that the parameter estimation problem would be well conditioned. After model simplification, which reduced the number of unknown parameters from 55 to 37, the parameters were estimated and good fitting of most experimental data was obtained. The simplified two‐site model was validated using the data from four extra experimental runs, which were not employed in the parameter estimation process. Most of the model predictions fall within the 95% confidence intervals of the experimental data. Model validation of hexene concentration.

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
