Abstract
An enormous amount of data needs to be processed in many data mining applications. In addition to algorithmic development, hardware support is imperative to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of these applications. We are investigating various hardware architectural design techniques and methodologies to support data mining at the chip level. In this work, we focus on the design of an FPGA-based processor array for the computation of similarity matrix, a commonly used data structure to represent the similarity among a set of feature vectors, with each matrix element representing the computed similarity measure between two vectors. An algorithm is developed to assign computation efficiently to the array of processing elements. Theoretical performance metrics are derived and compared to the experimental results. Performance gains using the processor array over software implementations are also presented and discussed.

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
