Abstract
A modified adaptive resonance theory (ART2) learning algorithm, which we employ in this paper, belongs to the family of NN algorithms whose main goal is the discovery of input data clusters, without considering their actual size. This feature makes the modified ART2 algorithm very convenient for image compression tasks, particularly when dealing with images with large background areas containing few details. Moreover, due to the ability to produce hierarchical quantization (clustering), the modified ART2 algorithm is proved to significantly reduce the computation time required for coding, and therefore enhance the overall compression process. Examples of the results obtained are presented, suggesting the benefits of using this algorithm for the purpose of VQ, i.e., image compression, over the other NN learning algorithms.

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
