Abstract
We show that a fiber-optics architecture conventionally used for microwave photonic filtering can implement a time-spectrum convolution (TSC) process of general interest for a wide range of fundamental optical signal processing and analysis operations. This process is practically implemented by temporally modulating a specially filtered broadband incoherent light source followed by propagation through a suitable linear dispersive medium. The TSC concept allows the time-domain realization of fundamental analog processing operations over both temporal and spectral intensity waveforms. Three particular, relevant signal-processing operations are proposed and experimentally demonstrated here to illustrate the broad potential of application of the TSC concept, namely time-integration, spectrum-integration, and time-frequency correlation of discrete binary codes.

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
