Abstract
Motivated by sawmill production planning, this paper investigates multi-period, multi-product (MPMP) production planning in a manufacturing environment with non-homogeneous raw materials, and consequently random process yields. A two-stage stochastic program with recourse is proposed to address the problem. The random yields are modelled as scenarios with stationary probability distributions during the planning horizon. The solution methodology is based on the sample average approximation (SAA) scheme. The stochastic sawmill production planning model is validated through the Monte Carlo simulation. The computational results for a real medium capacity sawmill highlight the significance of using the stochastic model as a viable tool for production planning instead of the mean-value deterministic model, which is a traditional production planning tool in many sawmills.

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
