Abstract
Abstract In the introduction to his comprehensive SEG textbook, Seismic Data Processing, Oz Yilmaz selects deconvolution, common-midpoint stacking and migration as being the three principal processes that are applied during routine seismic processing. Since Yilmaz's tome was first published in 1987, a vast number of papers have been published and conference presentations have been given on virtually every aspect of seismic processing. However, I think it is still accurate to say that the same three processes dominate the processing flow of the vast majority of seismic data that is processed now, at the beginning of the twenty-first century. This is not to say that important progress has not been made in many aspects of seismic processing and that much more sophisticated processing flows are now applied to some datasets. But it is a great tribute to the real pioneers of our profession—the people who advanced our ideas of seismic processing from examining raw analog records in the field to creating crisp computer-generated images of the subsurface with processes such as deconvolution, stack and migration—that the very same, or similar, algorithms that they invented still form the backbone of everyday processing that is done around the world today. In fact, there are times when it seems that the last great geophysicist was Carl Friedrich Gauss, because the method that he published back in 1823 of minimizing the sum of the squared errors seems to be used almost everywhere one looks in seismic processing, from deconvolution to migration.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
