Abstract
In this paper we first observe that the required amount of compressed test data transferred from the tester to the embedded cores in a system-on-a-chip (SOC) varies significantly during the testing process. This motivates a new approach to test data compression, mainly applicable to core-based SOCs, based on time-multiplexing the tester channels through which the on-chip decompressors will receive compressed test data only when necessary. The distinguishing advantage of this approach is that it is suitable for concurrent testing of multiple cores in an SOC and not only will the volume of test data be reduced but also the tester channel utilization will be increased.

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
