Abstract
Abstract Risk‐adjusted cumulative sum (RACUSUM) charts are popular for the surveillance of binary health care outcomes such as 30‐day mortality rates following cardiac surgery. RACUSUM charts are built on the assumptions that the binary outcomes are independent and the baseline rates are known constants. However, these two assumptions are often violated, thus undermining the validity of the surveillance procedure. In this paper, the authors propose risk‐adjusted surveillance procedures using a binary logistic regression model which allows ‐type autocorrelations among the binary outcomes. Two versions are presented: one with known, the other with estimated baseline parameters. The authors use Monte Carlo experiments to evaluate the power and the probability of false alarm (Type I error) of the surveillance procedures. Data on 30‐day mortality rates following cardiac surgery are used for illustration. The Canadian Journal of Statistics 43: 403–419; 2015 © 2015 Statistical Society of Canada

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
