Why is this work in the frame?
A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.
Full frame distilled prediction
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)
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
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.

Abstract
Abstract A new unstructured mesh coarsening algorithm has been developed for use in conjunction with multilevel methods. The algorithm preserves geometrical and topological features of the domain, and retains a maximal independent set of interior vertices to produce good coarse mesh quality. In anisotropic meshes, vertex selection is designed to retain the structure of the anisotropic mesh while reducing cell aspect ratio. Vertices are removed incrementally by contracting edges to zero length. Each vertex is removed by contracting the edge that maximizes the minimum sine of the dihedral angles of cells affected by the edge contraction. Rarely, a vertex slated for removal from the mesh cannot be removed; the success rate for vertex removal is typically 99.9% or more. For two‐dimensional meshes, both isotropic and anisotropic, the new approach is an unqualified success, removing all rejected vertices and producing output meshes of high quality; mesh quality degrades only when most vertices lie on the boundary. Three‐dimensional isotropic meshes are also coarsened successfully, provided that there is no difficulty distinguishing corners in the geometry from coarsely‐resolved curved surfaces; sophisticated discrete computational geometry techniques appear necessary to make that distinction. Three‐dimensional anisotropic cases are still problematic because of tight constraints on legal mesh connectivity. More work is required to either improve edge contraction choices or to develop an alternative strategy for mesh coarsening for three‐dimensional anisotropic meshes.
