Abstract
In this big data era, interpretable machine learning models are strongly demanded for the comprehensive analytics of large-scale multiclass data. Characterizing all features from such data is a key but challenging step to understand the complexity. However, existing feature selection methods do not meet this need. In this paper, to address this problem, we propose a Bayesian multiclass nonnegative matrix factorization (MC-NMF) model with structured sparsity that is able to discover ubiquitous and class-specific features. Variational update rules were derived for efficient decomposition. In order to relieve the need of model selection and stably describe feature patterns, we further propose MC-NMF with stability selection, an ensemble method that collectively detects feature patterns from many runs of MC-NMF using different hyperparameter values and training subsets. We assessed our models on both simulated count data and multitumor ribonucleic acid-seq data. The experiments revealed that our models were able to recover predefined feature patterns from the simulated data and identify biologically meaningful patterns from the pan-cancer data.

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
