Abstract
Biometrics is a unique area of multidisciplinary engineering practice. We address this specific-application area in our classes on ¿Fundamentals of Biometric System Design¿ for the senior undergraduate electrical, computer, and software engineering students. This one-semester course covers various aspects of engineering design of biometric systems such as formulation and analysis of design goals, choosing computing platform, including application-specific DSP processors; modeling and prototyping; mitigating attacks using various design styles; and decision-making support in complex biometric-based systems. Ten basic labs support these topics using signal processing and pattern recognition in MATLAB, software for modeling the face, fingerprint and iris images, specific-application software such as Bayesian belief networks, and hardware such as cameras in visual and infrared bands. The course material consists of the textbook based on the lecture notes, instructor manual with solution to about 200 problems, as well as the collections of quizzes, examinations, and lecture presentations.

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
