Abstract
A serially concatenated coding system which can operate without channel state information (CSI) with use of a simple channel-estimation technique is presented. This channel-estimation technique uses the inner decoder's a posteriori probability (APP) information about the transmitted symbols to form a channel estimate for each symbol interval, and is termed "APP channel estimation." The serially concatenated code is comprised of an outer rate-2/3 binary error-control code, separated by a bit interleaver from an inner code consisting of an 8-phase-shift keying (PSK) bit mapping and differential 8-PSK modulation. Coherent decoding provides bit-error rate performance 0.6 dB from 8-PSK capacity for large interleaver sizes. APP channel-estimation decoding without initial CSI over constant and random walk phase models shows near-coherent results, with fractions of a decibel performance loss for random walk and linear phase models.

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
