Abstract
In this paper, a novel implementation of discrete-time cellular neural networks (DT-CNNs) using the recently introduced current-mode pulse width modulation (CM-PWM) technique is presented. The CM-PWM technique can efficiently realize the delayed weighted summation required for DT-CNNs. All the weight currents are modulated to PWM pulses. Because of the translational invariance of a DT-CNN, a small number of weights (digital-like pulses) can be shared in the bus lines among all the cells. By changing the weight currents, a programmable DT-CNN can easily be achieved. This implementation of the DT-CNN results in small size of the whole system. This paper gives two application examples (a connected component detector and a hole filler).

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
