Abstract
In orthopaedic surgery, the three most commonly performed operations are total knee arthroplasty (TKA), total hip arthroplasty (THA), and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The demand for TKA is ever-increasing, with an estimated 700,000 TKAs performed each year in the USA alone, and a projected increase in demand to over 3.48 million procedures by 2030.1,2 Similarly, THA is one of the most successful and cost-effective interventions in orthopaedic surgery, considered by many as the operation of the century.3 The demand for THA is also rising worldwide.4-6 The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most commonly injured ligament in the knee with an estimated 400,000 ACLRs performed each year worldwide.7-9 Despite the success of and high demand for these procedures, debate continues on many surgical and technical aspects of these operations.

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
