Abstract
In this report we present a novel photoacoustic (PA) modality using pulsed chirp excitation at a fixed wavelength and spectral analysis based on frequency-domain (FD) processing. We introduce Truncated Correlation Photoacoustic Coherence Tomography (TC-PACT), a PA axial resolution enhancement methodology, with an application to closely stacked subsurface multilayers of plexiglass coated with a thin layer of graphite acting as surface absorber. The experimental results demonstrated that the SNR and the axial resolution were higher in TC-PACT than in conventional FD photoacoustics. A ns pulsed laser was also used as PA excitation source with axial resolution results found to be commensurate with TC-PACT. However, the separation distance between adjacent absorbers when the latter approached the axial resolution limit of the transducer was only resolved in TC-PACT compared to pulsed laser PA owing to the lower uncertainty in the former modality involved in determining the location of the absorbers.

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
