Abstract
This article presents a viable approach to mobile 3-D printing in which a large object is printed in segments. The printer's motion between printing each segment is localized precisely using the novel procedure of simultaneous localization and additive manufacturing (SLAAM), enabling the joining of subsequent segments while also maintaining overall geometric compliance of the printed part. SLAAM achieves sub-mm accuracy on objects over 400 mm long. SLAAM demonstrates the importance of fusing local (3-D scanner), and global (total-station range finder) sensing, and of maintaining, and updating estimates of the printed part geometry in a global frame. A six-parameter representation for a printed object's planar surfaces, consisting of the plane's normal vector, and a 3-D point on the planar patch itself, demonstrates good performance even in the presence of high odometry error.

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
