Abstract
We study a statistical model for panel data with unobservable grouped factor structures which are correlated with the regressors and whose group membership can be unknown. We assume the factor loadings belong to different subspaces and consider the subspace clustering for factor loadings. We propose a method called least‐squares subspace clustering (LSSC) to estimate the model parameters by minimizing the least‐squares distance while simultaneously performing the subspace clustering. We establish the consistency of our proposed subspace clustering method and study the asymptotic properties of our proposed estimators under certain conditions. Monte Carlo simulation studies illustrate the advantages of our proposed methodologies. To choose the subspace dimensions consistently, we use a model selection criterion. We also outline further considerations for situations when the number of subspaces and the dimensions of factors are unknown. For illustrative purposes, our proposed methods are applied to study the linkage between income and democracy across countries.

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
