Abstract
The early detection and rapid quantification of acute ischemic lesions play pivotal roles in stroke management. We developed a deep learning algorithm for the automatic binary classification of the Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomographic Score (ASPECTS) using diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in acute stroke patients. Three hundred and ninety DWI datasets with acute anterior circulation stroke were included. A classifier algorithm utilizing a recurrent residual convolutional neural network (RRCNN) was developed for classification between low (1-6) and high (7-10) DWI-ASPECTS groups. The model performance was compared with a pre-trained VGG16, Inception V3, and a 3D convolutional neural network (3DCNN). The proposed RRCNN model demonstrated higher performance than the pre-trained models and 3DCNN with an accuracy of 87.3%, AUC of 0.941, and F1-score of 0.888 for classification between the low and high DWI-ASPECTS groups. These results suggest that the deep learning algorithm developed in this study can provide a rapid assessment of DWI-ASPECTS and may serve as an ancillary tool that can assist physicians in making urgent clinical decisions.

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
