Abstract
Given a set [Formula: see text] of m unit disks and a set [Formula: see text] of n points in the plane, the discrete unit disk cover problem is to select a minimum cardinality subset [Formula: see text] to cover [Formula: see text]. This problem is NP-hard [14] and the best previous practical solution is a 38-approximation algorithm by Carmi et al. [5]. We first consider the line-separable discrete unit disk cover problem (the set of disk centers can be separated from the set of points by a line) for which we present an O(n( log n + m))-time algorithm that finds an exact solution. Combining our line-separable algorithm with techniques from the algorithm of Carmi et al. [5] results in an O(m 2 n 4 ) time 22-approximate solution to the discrete unit disk cover problem.

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
