Abstract
This article develops a method for correlating TMP operations with pulp quality, and ultimately with paper quality, by focusing on process fundamentals such as specific energy and refining intensity. The case study is an Eastern Canadian newsprint mill that experiences variability in paper strength and porosity. Frequent interruptions in the four refining lines greatly affect the reject refining specific energy and other key parameters, many of which are not measured directly and must be calculated from other variables. Using multivariate analysis and other statistical tools, it was possible to link pulp quality back to the TMP and reject refining operations, taking into account the number of lines in operation, plate age, and process lags. Furthermore, it was possible using multivariate analysis (MVA) models to correlate roughly half the variability in final paper quality with the refining operations.

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
