Abstract
Abstract In this article, first, we propose a novel unsupervised learning method based on a hierarchical Dirichlet process mixture of shifted‐scaled Dirichlet (SSD) distributions. Second, we extend it to a hierarchical Pitman–Yor process mixture of SSD distributions. The goal is to find a model that properly fits complex real‐world data. Our models are based on SSD distributions that are more flexible than Dirichlet distribution in fitting proportional data. Simultaneous data fitting (parameter estimate) and model selection (model complexity determination) are possible with the suggested methods. We applied batch and online variational inference for learning the models. The online setting allows us to feed our models with large‐scale streaming data. The effectiveness of our proposed models is evaluated by four realistic and challenging applications, namely, spam email detection, texture clustering, traffic sign detection, and vehicle detection. Experimental results demonstrate the potential of our models to fit proportional data.

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
