Abstract
This paper examines and validates regularized inversion for array element localization (AEL) by quantitative comparison of inversion results to direct measurements of receiver positions for a full-scale AEL survey. Regularized AEL treats both receiver and source positions as unknown parameters in a ray-based inversion; prior information on source/receiver positions, inter-receiver spacing in depth, and/or a smooth array shape can be included, subject to statistically fitting the acoustic data. Uncertainties in the recovered receiver positions are estimated via Monte Carlo appraisal. To study this approach, a specially stabilized, two-dimensional receiver array and a series of impulsive sources (imploding glass light bulbs) were deployed from shore-fast (motionless) Arctic sea ice. Sources and recordings were not synchronized in time, so AEL inversions are based on relative arrival times. Receiver positions were measured to an uncertainty of ∼5 cm in each dimension [9 cm in three dimensions (3D)] using nonacoustic (optical) methods. Average AEL errors (difference between measured receiver positions and inversion results) of 13 cm in depth, 27 cm in the horizontal, and 30 cm in 3D, as well as good agreement between the measured errors and estimated AEL uncertainties validate the regularized approach and provide benchmarks for acoustic AEL. Receiver-position errors are quantitatively investigated as a function of the number of sources, source-position errors, and different regularizations.

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
