Abstract
This paper presents a new procedure for the automated estimation of the phase relation between thoracic and abdominal breathing signals measured by inductance plethysmography (RIP). This estimation is achieved using linear filters, binary converters and an exclusive-or gate. The filters are designed offline from prior knowledge of the spectrum of subjects' respiration, reducing computational complexity and providing on-line processing capabilities. Some numerical results based on simulated time series and infant respiration data are provided, showing that the new method is less biased than the Pearson correlation method, commonly used for assessment of thoracoabdominal asynchrony. Our method offers further advantages: 1) it works with uncalibrated measurements; 2) it provides quantitative phase estimates with no need to estimate the underlying frequency of the breathing signals; 3) it does not require nonconvex optimization search algorithms; and 4) it is easy to implement and to automate.

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
