Abstract
The IEEE 802.22 is a new cognitive radio standard that is aimed at extending\nwireless outreach to rural areas. Known as wireless regional area networks, and\ndesigned based on the not-to-interfere spectrum sharing model, WRANs are\nchannelized and centrally-controlled networks working on the under-utilized\nUHF/VHF TV bands to establish communication with remote users, so-called\ncustomer premises equipment (CPEs). Despite the importance of reliable and\ninterference-free operation in these frequencies, spectrum sensing fusion\nmechanisms suggested in IEEE 802.22 are rudimentary and fail to satisfy the\nstringent mandated sensing requirements. Other deep-rooted shortcomings are\nperformance non-uniformity over different signal-to-noise-ratio regimes,\nunbalanced performance, instability and lack of flexibility. Inspired by these\nobservations, in this paper we propose a distributed spectrum sensing technique\nfor WRANs, named multi-channel learning-based distributed sensing fusion\nmechanism (MC-LDS). MC-LDS is demonstrated to be self-trained, stable and to\ncompensate for fault reports through its inherent reward-penalty approach.\nMoreover, MC-LDS exhibits a better uniform performance in all traffic regimes,\nis fair (reduces the false-alarm/misdetection gap), adjustable (works with\nseveral degrees of freedom) and bandwidth efficient (opens transmission\nopportunities for more CPEs). Simulation results and comparisons unanimously\ncorroborate that MC-LDS outperforms IEEE 802.22 recommended algorithms, i.e.,\nthe AND, OR and VOTING rules.\n

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
