Abstract
The paper presents a framework for jointly designing motion compensation, quantization and entropy coding in a hybrid video coding structure to minimize a rate distortion cost. Given motion compensation, a soft decision-based quantization algorithm is first designed to reduce the rate distortion cost by adapting quantization outputs to the baseline entropy coding method in the newest standard H.264. Motion compensation is then optimized by searching for a prediction to reduce the rate distortion cost further based on given quantization outputs. By alternating these two steps, an iterative method is then proposed. The proposed algorithms have been implemented based on the reference encoder of H.264 with complete baseline decoder compatibility. Comparative studies show that the baseline-based iterative optimization method achieves coding performance comparable, or sometimes superior, to that afforded by the main profile encoder.

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
