Abstract
Introduction: It is conjectured that the symmetric Hadamard matrices of order 4v exist for all odd integers v>0. In recent years, their existence has been proven for many new orders by using a special method known as the propus construction. This construction uses difference families Xk (k=1, 2, 3, 4) over the cyclic group Zv (integers mod v) with parameters (v; k1, k2, k3, k4; λ) where X1 is symmetric, X2=X3, and k1+2k2+k4=v+λ. It is also conjectured that such difference families (known as propus families) exist for all parameter sets mentioned above excluding the case when all the ki are equal. This new conjecture has been verified for all odd v≤53. Purpose: To construct many new symmetric Hadamard matrices by using the propus construction and to provide further support for the above-mentioned conjecture. Results: The first examples of symmetric Hadamard matrices of orders 4v are presented for v=127 and v=191. The systematic computer search for symmetric Hadamard matrices based on the propus construction has been extended to cover the cases v=55, 57, 59, 61, 63. Practical relevance: Hadamard matrices are used extensively in the problems of error-free coding, and compression and masking of video information.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
