Abstract
For a pair of polynomials with real or complex coefficients, given in any particular basis, the problem of finding their GCD is known to be ill-posed. An answer is still desired for many applications, however. Hence, looking for a GCD of so-called approximate polynomials where this term explicitly denotes small uncertainties in the coefficients has received significant attention in the field of hybrid symbolic-numeric computation. In this paper we give an algorithm, based on one of Victor Ya. Pan, to find an approximate GCD for a pair of approximate polynomials given in a Lagrange basis. More precisely, we suppose that these polynomials are given by their approximate values at distinct known points. We first find each of their roots by using a Lagrange basis companion matrix for each polynomial, cluster the roots of each polynomial to identify multiple roots, and then “marry” the two polynomials to find their GCD. At no point do we change to the monomial basis, thus preserving the good conditioning properties of the original Lagrange basis. We discuss advantages and drawbacks of this method. The computational cost is dominated by the rootfinding step; unless special-purpose eigenvalue algorithms are used, the cost is cubic in the degrees of the polynomials. In principle, this cost could be reduced but we do not do so here.

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
