Abstract
Efficiently solving large-scale box-constrained convex quadratic programs (QPs) is an important computational challenge in physical simulation. We propose a new multilevel preconditioning scheme based on the active-set method and combine it with modified proportioning with reduced gradient projections (MPRGP) to efficiently solve such QPs arising from pressure Poisson equations with non-negative pressure constraints in fluid animation. Our method employs a purely algebraic multigrid method to ensure the solvability of the coarser level systems and to merge only algebraically-connected components, thereby avoiding performance degradation of the preconditioner. We present a filtering scheme to efficiently apply our multilevel preconditioning only to unconstrained subsystems of the pressure Poisson system while reusing the hierarchy constructed per simulation step. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method over previous approaches in various examples.

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
