Abstract
The structure factor model (SFM) is a scattering model developed to simulate the backscattering coefficient (BSC) of aggregated red blood cells (RBCs). However, the SFM can hardly be implemented to estimate the structural aggregate parameters in the framework of an inverse problem formulation. A scattering model called the effective medium theory combined with the SFM (EMTSFM) is thus proposed to approximate the SFM. The EMTSFM assumes that aggregates of RBCs can be treated as individual homogeneous scatterers, which have effective properties determined by the acoustical characteristics and concentration of RBCs within aggregates. The EMTSFM parameterizes the BSC by three indices: the aggregate radius, the concentration of RBCs with- in aggregates (the aggregate compactness), and the systemic hematocrit. The goodness of fit of the EMTSFM approximation in comparison with the SFM was then examined. Based on a 2-D study, the EMTSFM was found to approximate the SFM with relative errors less than 30% for a product of the wavenumber times the mean aggregate radius krΛκ <; 1.32. The main contribution of this work is the parameterization of the BSC with the RBC aggregate compactness, which is of relevance in clinical hemorheology because it reflects the binding energy between RBCs.

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
