Abstract
In this article, we propose a novel estimator of extreme conditional quantiles in partial functional linear regression models with heavy-tailed distributions. The conventional quantile regression estimators are often unstable at the extreme tails due to data sparsity, especially for heavy-tailed distributions. We first estimate the slope function and the partially linear coefficient using a functional quantile regression based on functional principal component analysis, which is a robust alternative to the ordinary least squares regression. The extreme conditional quantiles are then estimated by using a new extrapolation technique from extreme value theory. We establish the asymptotic normality of the proposed estimator and illustrate its finite sample performance by simulation studies and an empirical analysis of diffusion tensor imaging data from a cognitive disorder study.

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
