Abstract
Abstract Modelling multivariate survival data is complicated by the complex association structure among the responses. To balance model flexibility and interpretability, we propose a semiparametric copula model to modulate multivariate survival data, with the marginal distributions of the response components described by semiparametric linear transformation models. To conduct inference about the model parameters, we develop a two‐stage maximum likelihood method and a three‐stage pseudo‐likelihood estimation procedure. We investigate the impact of model misspecification on the estimation of covariate effects and identify a scenario in which consistent estimation of the marginal parameters is retained even when the copula model is misspecified. The proposed methods are justified both theoretically and empirically. An application to a real dataset is provided to demonstrate the utility of the proposed method.

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
