Abstract
The ranked-set sampling technique has been generalized so that a more efficient estimator may be obtained. This technique allows more than one unit from each set to be quantified. Consequently, the number of units to be sampled may be reduced significantly and as a result, the corresponding cost would also be reduced. The generalized ranked-set sampling technique is applied in the estimation of parameters of the half logistic distribution. New estimators are proposed which include linear minimum variance unbiased estimators and ranked-set sample estimators. The coefficients, variances and relative efficiencies are tabulated. The estimators are compared to the best linear unbiased estimator of the parameters. Sample design strategy is also considered.

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
