Abstract
We describe a novel max-margin parameter learning approach for structured prediction problems under certain non-decomposable performance measures. Structured prediction is a common approach in many vision problems. Non-decomposable performance measures are also commonplace. However, efficient general methods for learning parameters against non-decomposable performance measures do not exist. In this paper we develop such a method, based on dual decomposition, that is applicable to a large class of non-decomposable performance measures. We exploit dual decomposition to factorize the original hard problem into two smaller problems and show how to optimize each factor efficiently. We show experimentally that the proposed approach significantly outperforms alternatives, which either sacrifice the model structure or approximate the performance measure, and is an order of magnitude faster than a previous approach with comparable results.

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
