Abstract
Extraction of underlying patterns from measured variables is central to various data-driven control applications, such as soft-sensor modeling, statistical process monitoring, and fault detection and diagnosis. More often than not, the observed variables display nonstationary characteristics and oscillations due to the changes in operating conditions and problems in controller tuning. Such variations pose a great challenge to conventional feature extraction methods. Hence, we present a probabilistic drift-type nonstationary oscillating slow feature model that can separate oscillating patterns and nonstationary variations from measured data. Furthermore, the measurement noise of each variable is independently modeled to account for the fact that not all the observed variables have the same level of uncertainty. Finally, the feature extractor parameters are estimated under a variational Bayesian framework to incorporate the prior information and obtain corresponding posterior distributions. The proposed methodology is applied to solve a fouling monitoring problem for an industrial oil production process.

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
