Abstract
Objectives and Methods Tablet sticking is a continuous accumulation of pharmaceutical powder onto tooling surfaces during compression. Its occurrence greatly impacts tablet productivity, quality attributes, and tooling age. In a previous study, the authors proposed a multivariate data analysis approach to gain insights into tablet sticking directly on the industrial stage. The objective was to determine the combination of factors that could help distinguish between batches affected and unaffected by sticking. The present study aims to generalize this approach by extending it to quantitative predictions of punch sticking intensity. A total of 345 variables was gathered on 28 industrial batches of an ibuprofen and methocarbamol-based formulation.Result and Conclusion Using PLS regression models, it was shown that the association of granulation duration and compression force allows to significantly explain ∼60% of sticking variations of studied formulation. In addition, unlike the classification models developed in the earlier work, the validation residues in the present study were found to be normally distributed (Shapiro–Wilks p value = 0.96) and independent from the target variable (R2 = 9.5%).

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
