Abstract
Sparsity-promoting prior along with Bayesian inference is an effective approach in solving sparse linear models (SLMs). In this paper, we first introduce a new sparsity-promoting prior coined as Double Lomax prior, which corresponds to a three-level hierarchical model, and then we derive a full variational Bayesian (VB) inference procedure. When noninformative hyperprior is assumed, we further show that the proposed method has one more latent variable than the canonical automatic relevance determination (ARD). This variable has a smoothing effect on the solution trajectories, thus providing improved convergence performance. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by numerical simulations including autoregressive (AR) model identification and compressive sensing (CS) problems.

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
