Abstract
Many scientific papers treat the diversity of fractal dimensions as mere variations on either the same theme or a single definition. There is a need for a unified approach to fractal dimensions for there are fundamental differences between their definitions. This paper presents a new description of three essential classes of fractal dimensions based on: (1) morphology, (2) entropy, and (3) transforms, all unified through the generalized-entropy-based Rényi fractal dimension spectrum. It discusses practical algorithms for computing 15 different fractal dimensions representing the classes. Although the individual dimensions have already been described in the literature, the unified approach presented in this paper is unique in terms of (1) its progressive development of the fractal dimension concept, (2) similarity in the definitions and expressions, (3) analysis of the relation between the dimensions, and (4) their taxonomy. As a result, a number of new observations have been made, and new applications discovered. Of particular interest are behavioral processes (such as dishabituation), irreversible and birth-death growth phenomena (e.g., diffusion-limited aggregates (DLAs), dielectric discharges, and cellular automata), as well as dynamical non-stationary transient processes (such as speech and transients in radio transmitters), multi-fractal optimization of image compression using learned vector quantization with Kohonen’s self-organizing feature maps (SOFMs), and multi-fractal-based signal denoising.

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
