Abstract
This report describes a preliminary evaluation of performance of a cell-FPGA-like architecture for future hybrid "CMOL" circuits. Such circuits will combine a semiconduc-tor-transistor (CMOS) stack and a two-level nanowire crossbar with molecular-scale two-terminal nanodevices (program-mable diodes) formed at each crosspoint. Our cell-based architecture is based on a uniform CMOL fabric of "tiles". Each tile consists of 12 four-transistor basic cells and one (four times larger) latch cell. Due to high density of nanodevices, which may be used for both logic and routing functions, CMOL FPGA may be reconfigured around defective nanodevices to provide high defect tolerance. Using a semi-custom set of design automation tools we have evaluated CMOL FPGA performance for the Toronto 20 benchmark set, so far without optimization of several parameters including the power supply voltage and nanowire pitch. The results show that even without such optimization, CMOL FPGA circuits may provide a density advantage of more than two orders of magnitude over the traditional CMOS FPGA with the same CMOS design rules, at comparable time delay, acceptable power consumption and potentially high defect tolerance.

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
