Abstract
The truss upgrade for the Calgary Municipal Building posed a unique challenge for live tracking of the structure’s reaction to the pre-loadings, welding operations, and the removal of the preloads. The authors, therefore, devised a method for a special case of deflection monitoring, with the pre-condition of having a displacement-free location available where cameras could be installed. The dust and other construction material would appear above the specimen, and the light over the specimen was variable. The proposed approach of this research was to use a correlation-based object recognition for retro-reflective targets. The technique maintained an accuracy of 0.08 mm in deflection monitoring with a camera at 15-m away from the targets over a period of eight months data acquisition. The conclusion was that this digital image correlation (DIC) technique can provide deflections in the perpendicular plane to the line of sight of the cameras and can be used under harsh conditions for the targets (e.g., dust and physical damage), with a limited light source. The effect of external environmental parameters, such as daily temperature, solar radiation, and air pressure on the observed deflections, were analyzed and the close relationship between temperature and variations in deflection were observed.

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
