Abstract
One of the major drawbacks of the current neural network generation is the inability to cope with the increase of size/complexity of classification tasks. Modular neural network classifiers attempt to solve this problem through a "divide and conquer" approach. However. The performance of the modular neural network classifiers is sensitive to efficiency of the "task decomposition" technique and the "multi-module decision-making" strategy. After a brief review of previous work with emphasis on five published modular classifiers-decoupled nets, ART-BP, hierarchical network, multiple experts, and multiple identical networks (majority vote and average output decisions)-this paper introduces the cooperative modular neural network (CMNN). The CMNN classifier outperforms the surveyed nets due to its novel task decomposition and multi-module decision-making techniques.

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
