Abstract
Accurate channel estimates are needed in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), and easily obtained under the assumption of perfect phase and frequency synchronization. However, the practical receiver encounters nonnegligible phase noise (PHN) and carrier frequency offset (CFO), which create substantial intercarrier interference that a conventional OFDM channel estimator cannot account for. In this paper, we introduce an optimal (maximum a posteriori) joint estimator for the channel impulse response (CIR), CFO, and PHN, utilizing prior statistical knowledge of PHN that can be obtained from measurements or data sheets. In addition, in cases where a training symbol consists of two identical halves in the time domain, we propose a variant to Moose's CFO estimation algorithm that optimally removes the effect of PHN with lower complexity than with a nonrepeating training symbol. To further reduce the complexity of the proposed algorithms, simplified implementations based on the conjugate gradient method are also introduced such that the estimators studied in this paper can be realized efficiently using the fast Fourier transform with only minor performance degradation.

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
