Abstract
Secret image sharing is a method for distributing a secret image amongst n data stores, each storing a shadow image of the secret, such that the original secret image can be recovered only if any k out of the n shares is available. Existing secret image sharing schemes, however, do not support scaling and cropping operations on the shadow image, which are useful for zooming on large images. In this paper, we propose an image sharing scheme that allows the user to retrieve a scaled or cropped version of the secret image by operating directly on the shadow images, therefore reducing the amount of data sent from the data stores to the user. Results and analyses show that our scheme is highly secure, requires low computational cost, and supports a large number of scale factors with arbitrary crop.

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
