Abstract
The comparison of the gene orders in a set of genomes can be used to infer their phylogenetic relationships and to reconstruct ancestral gene orders. For three genomes this is done by solving the "median problem for breakpoints"; this solution can then be incorporated into a routine for estimating optimal gene orders for all the ancestral genomes in a fixed phylogeny. For the difficult (and most prevalent) case where the genomes contain partially different sets of genes, we present a general heuristic for the median problem for induced breakpoints. A fixed-phylogeny optimization based on this is applied in a phylogenetic study of a set of completely sequenced protist mitochondrial genomes, confirming some of the recent sequence-based groupings which have been proposed and, conversely, confirming the usefulness of the breakpoint method as a phylogenetic tool even for small genomes.

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
