Abstract
Graph signal processing is an emerging field which aims to model processes that exist on the nodes of a network and are explained through diffusion over this structure. Graph signal processing works have heretofore assumed knowledge of the graph shift operator. Our approach is to investigate the question of graph filtering on a graph about which we only know a model. To do this we leverage the theory of graphons proposed by L. Lovasz and B. Szegedy. We make three key contributions to the emerging field of graph signal processing. We show first that filters defined over the scaled adjacency matrix of a random graph drawn from a graphon converge to filters defined over the Fredholm integral operator with the graphon as its kernel. Second, leveraging classical findings from the theory of the numerical solution of Fredholm integral equations, we define the Fourier-Galerkin shift operator. Lastly, using the Fourier-Galerkin shift operator, we derive a graph filter design algorithm which only depends on the graphon, and thus depends only on the probabilistic structure of the graph instead of the particular graph itself. The derived graphon filtering algorithm is verified through simulations on a variety of random graph models.

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
