Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We study the ability of recently developed variable-length constrained sequence codes to determine codeword boundaries in the received sequence upon initial receipt of the sequence and if errors in the received sequence cause synchronization to be lost. We first investigate construction of these codes based on the finite state machine description of a given constraint, and develop new construction criteria to achieve high synchronization probabilities. Given these criteria, we propose a guided partial extension algorithm to construct variable-length constrained sequence codes with high synchronization probabilities. With this algorithm we construct new codes and determine the number of codewords and coded bits that are needed to recover synchronization once synchronization is lost. We consider a large variety of constraints including the runlength limited (RLL) constraint, the DC-free constraint, the Pearson constraint and constraints for inter-cell interference mitigation in flash memories. Simulation results show that the codes we construct exhibit excellent synchronization properties, often resynchronizing within a few bits.

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.
