Abstract
In many practical scenarios with multipath propagation, one target may generate multiple detections in one scan. Proper use of multipath-induced measurements can improve the detection of very low observable (VLO) targets. In this paper, a true multitarget tracker, the joint multipath maximum likelihood probabilistic multihypothesis tracker (JMP-ML-PMHT) is proposed to address this problem. The standard ML-PMHT is extended to incorporate multipath detections and jointly track multiple VLO targets. The Cramer–Rao lower bound with multipath detections is derived. Simulation results with an over-the-horizon-radar scenario show that the JMP-ML-PMHT can detect and track multiple VLO targets by effectively utilizing the information in multipath measurements.

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
