Abstract
Vehicular networks consist of highly mobile vehicles communications, where connectivity is intermittent. Due to the distributed and highly dynamic nature of vehicular network, to minimize the end-to-end delay and the network traffic at the same time in data forwarding is very hard. Heuristic algorithms utilizing either contact-level or social-level scale of vehicular mobility have only one-sided view of the network and therefore are not optimal. In this paper, by analyzing three large sets of Global Positioning System (GPS) trace of more than ten thousand public vehicles, we find that pairwise contacts have strong temporal correlation. Furthermore, the contact graph of vehicles presents complex structure when aggregating the underlying contacts. In understanding the impact of both levels of mobility to the data forwarding, we propose an innovative scheme, named ZOOM, for fast opportunistic forwarding in vehicular networks, which automatically choose the most appropriate mobility information when deciding next data-relays in order to minimize the end-to-end delay while reducing the network traffic. Extensive trace-driven simulations demonstrate the efficacy of ZOOM design. On average, ZOOM can improve 30% performance gain comparing to the state-of-art algorithms.

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
