Abstract
Wagemans, Lamote, and van Gool (1997) have attempted to show that observers can determine the geometric equivalence of shapes seen in perspective, or in projective transformation. Artifacts of measurement in their procedures forestall such a conclusion. Their experiment fails to control projective properties adequately, and also confounds the transformations of shear and compression. Their evidence that observers can discern the equivalence of shapes under perspective can be reconstrued as evidence for sensitivity to different, unrelated properties: to the plane compression that follows from the depiction of flat shapes in perspective, and to gross differences in shape not specific to projective geometry. An improved set of procedures is proposed for the measurement of stimuli in the study of visual shape constancy.

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
