Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Two-stage conditional probability density function estimators are proposed and studied. Specifically, the Nadaraya-Watson (NW) and local linear (LL) conditional distribution function estimators have been smoothed using Bernstein polynomials in the first stage. Second, the proposed estimators are obtained by differentiating NW and LL estimators. The asymptotic properties of these estimators are established such as asymptotic bias, variance, and normality. Finally, a simulation study is carried out to assess the relative advantage of our estimators compared to other competitors. In addition, the well-known Old Faithful Geyser data is analyzed using the proposed estimators.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
