Abstract
Abstract A model is developed to predict rates of undesirable reactions in the low‐moisture, high‐temperature finishing stage of nylon 66 production. The model contains 56 unknown parameters and initial conditions, which are ranked based on their influence on model predictions, correlation with other parameters and uncertainty in their initial guesses. A mean‐square‐error criterion is used to determine that 43 of 56 parameters should be estimated. The proposed model, which describes the effect of melt‐phase water concentration on degradation, matches the data well with typical errors of 6.1 and 2.9%, respectively, for amine ends (A) and carboxyl ends (C) and 4.3, 27.2, and 29.4%, respectively, for evolution rates of CO 2 , NH 3 , and cyclopentanone (CPK). magnified image

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
