Abstract
A conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) is a generative adversarial network (GAN) that generates data with a desired condition from a latent vector. Among the different types of cGAN, the auxiliary classifier GAN (ACGAN) is the most frequently used. In this study, we describe the problems of an AC-GAN and propose replacing it with a conditional activation GAN (CAGAN) to reduce the number of hyperparameters and improve the training speed. The loss function of a CAGAN is defined as the sum of the loss of each GAN created for each condition. The proposed CAGAN is an integration of multiple GANs, where each GAN shares all hidden layers, and their integration can be considered as a single GAN. Therefore, the structure of the integrated GANs does not significantly increase the number of computations. Additionally, to prevent the conditions given in the discriminator of a cGAN from being ignored with batch normalization, we propose mixed batch training, in which every batch for the discriminator keeps the ratio of the real and generated data consistent.

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
