Abstract
Precision analysis of floating-point polynomial data-flow-graphs in terms of the error measure Maximum Mismatch (MM) is a challenging verification problem in computer arithmetic and embedded systems. In this paper by pairing the spectral technique Arithmetic Transform (AT) with Interval Arithmetic (IA), we introduce a static analysis to compute an overestimation of MM for floating-point polynomial specifications. The proposed analysis is applicable to fixed-point designs as well. We compare our solution with Affine Arithmetic (AA), the Gappa tool, which uses IA, as well as simulation-based methods, on a set of polynomial benchmarks. Experiments show that our analysis results in much lower overestimations of MM compared to previous work.

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
