Abstract
Regression clustering is an important model-based clustering tool having applications in a variety of disciplines. It discovers and reconstructs the hidden structure for a data set which is a random sample from a population comprising a fixed, but unknown, number of sub-populations, each of which is characterized by a class-specific regression hyperplane. An essential objective, as well as a preliminary step, in most clustering techniques including regression clustering, is to determine the underlying number of clusters in the data. In this paper, we briefly review regression clustering methods and discuss how to determine the underlying number of clusters by using model selection techniques, in particular, the information-based technique. A computing algorithm is developed for estimating the number of clusters and other parameters in regression clustering. Simulation studies are also provided to show the performance of the algorithm. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classifications: 62H30, 68T10, 91C20

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
