Abstract
In this article, we consider an additive hazards semiparametric model for left-truncated and right-censored data where the risk function has a partly linear structure, we call it the partly linear additive hazards model. The nonlinear components are assumed to be B-splines functions, so the model can be viewed as a semiparametric model with an unknown baseline hazard function and a partly linear parametric risk function, which can model both linear and nonlinear covariate effects, hence is more flexible than a purely linear or nonlinear model. We construct a pseudo-score function to estimate the coefficients of the linear covariates and the B-spline basis functions. The proposed estimators are asymptotically normal under the assumption that the true nonlinear functions are B-spline functions whose knot locations and number of knots are held fixed. On the other hand, when the risk functions are unknown non-parametric functions, the proposed method provides a practical solution to the underlying inference problems. We conduct simulation studies to empirically examine the finite-sample performance of the proposed method and analyze a real dataset for illustration.

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
