Abstract
ABSTRACT The nonlocal means algorithm is a noise attenuation filter that was originally developed for the purposes of image denoising. This algorithm denoises each sample or pixel within an image by utilizing other similar samples or pixels regardless of their spatial proximity, making the process nonlocal. Such a technique places no assumptions on the data except that structures within the data contain a degree of redundancy. Because this is generally true for reflection seismic data, we propose to adopt the nonlocal means algorithm to attenuate random noise in seismic data. Tests with synthetic and real data sets demonstrate that the nonlocal means algorithm does not smear seismic energy across sharp discontinuities or curved events when compared to seismic denoising methods such as f-x deconvolution.

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
