Abstract
Abstract The growth of high-quality InGaSb crystals by Vertical Gradient Freezing (VGF) under microgravity was numerically simulated. Machine learning tools were used to optimize the growth conditions. The study focuses on controlling growth interface shape which directly affects the quality and homogeneity of the grown crystals. Initially, Bayesian optimization was utilized to search for the most favorable growth conditions that promote a desirable flatter growth interface shape. Afterward, a reinforcement learning model was developed. The system was subjected to a lower temperature gradient near the feed crystal and to crucible rotation with a rate ranging according to the obtained optimal strategy. Results showed that the interface deformation is considerably reduced, and a flatter growth interface could be maintained. The growth rate and solute concentration uniformity were also improved. This adaptive control recipe proves to hold great potential in the continuous and rapid optimization of other crystal growth processes.

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
