Abstract
We develop blind and semi-blind joint estimators of the channel impulse response (CIR) and data symbols for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems over a frequency selective fading channel. Using the maximum likelihood (ML) criterion, we derive two estimators for the transmit data symbols that require minimizing a complex, integer quadratic x/sup T/Gx* where x is a data vector and the matrix G characterizes each estimator. Avoiding computationally prohibitive exhaustive search, we use both sphere decoding (SD) and V-BLAST algorithms. We also modify the SD algorithm for our complex OFDM system, to handle any M-PSK, and incorporate a reduced complexity SD into the OFDM system. The quadratic for the blind estimator suffers from rank deficiency. We give an efficient solution to the rank deficiency problem. Simulation results confirm the good performance of our proposed estimators.

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
