Abstract
We consider the construction of capacity-approaching variable-length constrained sequence codes based on the multi-state encoders that permit state-independent decoding. Based on the finite-state machine description of the constraint, we first select the principal states and establish the minimal sets. By performing partial extensions and normalized geometric Huffman coding, efficient codebooks that enable state-independent decoding are obtained. We then extend this multi-state approach to a construction technique based on the n -step FSMs. We demonstrate the usefulness of this approach by constructing the capacity-approaching variable-length constrained sequence codes with improved efficiency and/or reduced implementation complexity to satisfy a variety of constraints, including the runlength-limited (RLL) constraint, the DC-free constraint, and the DC-free RLL constraint, with an emphasis on their application in visible light communications.

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
