Abstract
Working Group 3 (WG3) of the Task Force on Mixed Mod Dispute Resolution explores the topic of mediators using non-binding evaluations and making settlement proposals as a form of mixed mode dispute resolution. Mediators employing such techniques might express their assessment of the strength of a party’s case, predict the outcome of any arbitration or litigation that might follow the mediation or, at the parties’ request, make an outright suggestion of how the parties could settle the dispute. WG3 provides a framework for assessing a mixed mode within a mediation process. It puts forth that mediators should explicitly discuss process design with parties, in light of WG3’s Grid Regarding Party Autonomy in Mediation and Conciliation and the potential impact of a mediator’s intervention on parties’ self-determination regarding substance and process. Moreover, WG3 shows how a mediator can align and adapt mediation techniques with the parties’ process choices regarding substance and process.

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
