Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We mimic alpha male social structure, which is common in many species of animals, for designing genetic algorithms. The population of solutions is partitioned into a number of social groups. One member of each is assigned alpha male status and the rest are reproductive females. A generation is defined as females producing one offspring each. Once all the females produce one offspring each, new groups are formed and one member of each is selected as the alpha male for the next generation. The procedure was extensively tested on instances of the quadratic assignment problem. We obtained better solutions using the same computer run time and found two new best known solutions, confirming the effectiveness of the alpha male approach.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
