Abstract
Theta oscillations in the hippocampus support cognitive processing. Theta-range rhythmicity has also been reported in frontal and posterior cortical areas--where it tends to show consistent phase-relations with hippocampal rhythmicity. Theta-range rhythmicity may, then, be important for cortico-cortical and/or cortico-hippocampal interactions. Here, we surveyed the rat frontal and posterior midline cortices for theta-related oscillations and examined their relationships with hippocampal activity in freely moving rats. Variation in electroencephalography across 4 general classes of spontaneous behavior demonstrated different profiles of theta-like activities through the rat midline cortices. Analysis of cortico-cortical and cortico-hippocampal coherences showed distinct, behavior-dependent, couplings of theta and delta oscillations. Increased theta coherence between structures was most obvious during nonautomatic behaviors and least during immobility or grooming. Extensive coupling of theta oscillations throughout the rat midline cortices and hippocampus occurred during rearing, and exploratory behavior. Such increases in coherence could reflect binding of cortico-hippocampal pathways into temporary functional units by behavioral demands. Extensive coupling of frontal delta, which lacked coherence with posterior areas (including the hippocampus), suggests that different frequencies of rhythmicity may act to bind groups of structures into different functional circuits on different occasions.

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
