Abstract
Abstract : Defence R&D Canada (DRDC) anticipates, assesses, and provides advice about the impact of emerged and emerging technologies to ensure that Canadian Forces are technologically prepared. In 2011, DRDC is considering Virtual Reality and Neural Interfaces as a potentially disruptive technologies (PDT). The purpose of this position paper is to help inform views on the use of Virtual Reality (VR) for military training by providing answers to specific questions that were posed by the DRDC examining committee. The questions sought the following: (1) a definition of the technology, (2) an analysis of its potential for disrupting defence and security, (3) identification of key barriers and key drivers for the use of the technology, and (4) an assessment of the maturity of the technology. The main conclusions of this position paper are that VR has been and continues to be a disruptive training technology for friendly and opposing forces, and that VR, if used for embedded training, could provide a means to regain -- with the help of other enabling disruptive technologies -- a training advantage that has been lost with the proliferation of technology.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
