Abstract
Given a curvilinear geometric object in R 3 , made up of properly-joined parametric patches defined in terms of control points, it is of interest to know under what conditions the object will retain its original topological form when the control points are perturbed. For example, the patches might be triangular Bézier surface patches, and the geometric object may represent the boundary of a solid in a solid-modeling application. In this paper we give sufficient conditions guaranteeing that topological form is preserved by an ambient isotopy. The main conditions to be satisfied are that the original object should be continuously perturbed in a way that introduces no self-intersections of any patch, and such that the patches remain properly joined. The patches need only have C 0 continuity along the boundaries joining adjacent patches. The results apply directly to most surface modeling schemes, and they are of interest in several areas of application.

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
