Abstract
A new multivariate model for flood forecasting of lake levels has been developed and applied to Lake Wakatipu and Lake Wanaka in the South Island of New Zealand. The model is based on the concept of the projection theorem to derive the optimum projection of the increase in lake levels on the driving factors for this increase. The driving factors that have been considered in this research are observed rainfall at sites in the catchment area or close to it, stream flows from rivers draining this rainfall in the region and outflows from the lakes. About 22 years of observed rainfall, river flows, lake outflows and lake levels have been investigated to select 23 significant events for model calibration and 2 events for model validation. A lag of 10 hours (Lake Wakatipu) and a lag of 7 hours (Lake Wanaka) between cumulative lake rise and cumulative rainfalls have been verified to improve the modelling process and have been utilized in the multivariate model. The analysis of the fitted parameters for the multivariate model has resulted in the removal of some sites from the model due to their insignificant contribution or their being on odd with the realistic physical hydrological process. The projection theorem for orthonormal sets in the Hilbert space has been applied to the statistical characteristics of the data to estimate the optimum parameters of the multivariate model. Two multivariate models have been developed in this research. The first multivariate model is for the long-term forecast of the rise of lake levels based on the forecasted rainfalls at selected rainfall sites in the catchment. The second multivariate model was derived based on the physical process of the hydrologic budget of a catchment and can be used for forecasted lake rise during the flood event based on rainfalls and stream flows gauged in the catchment areas of the lakes, in addition to the lake outflows.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
