Abstract
The exact null distributions of test statistics used for testing up to k(≥1) upper outliers in a two-parameter Laplace sample are investigated. Two types of test statistics, namely, the modified Murphy’s test for k upper normal outliers and the general Dixon-type test statistic discussed by Childs, are considered. Utilizing the result of conditional independence of blocked ordered data established by Iliopoulos and Balakrishnan, together with the computational algorithm of Huffer and Lin for distributions of linear combinations of exponential variables, exact critical values of test statistics for testing discordancy of k upper outliers in two-parameter Laplace samples are obtained. For illustration, some examples with pertinent computational details are finally presented.

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
