Abstract
In this paper, we report a novel method of droplet sensing in a two-plate digital microfluidic system (DMS) based on coplanar capacitance measurement. The total capacitance between the two adjacent electrodes on the lower plate depends on the position of the droplet. Both numerical and experimental results show that the capacitance is maximal at the midpoint between two electrodes. The value of maximum capacitance increases with the volume of the droplet. Further, the measured capacitance is a function of the gaps between the electrodes as well as the plates. This new method of droplet sensing adds to the functionality of DMSs by allowing single plate measurement.

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
