Abstract
In many applications such as case-control studies with contaminated controls, or the test of a treatment effect in the presence of nonresponders in biological experiments or clinical trials, a two-sample problem with one of the samples having a mixture structure often arises. Due to the importance and wide applications of scale mixtures and location mixtures, we consider in this paper the case that the component densities differ only in scale parameters and the case that the component densities differ only in location parameters, and further construct an EM-test for the two-sample problem under each case. We show that both the EM-tests possess a chi-squared null limiting distribution. The local power analysis and sample size calculations are also investigated. Finally, the simulation studies and real data analysis demonstrate that the proposed EM-tests have better performance than the existing methods.

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
