Abstract
Visual perception combines top-down processes arising from participants individual histories, such as expectations and goals, and bottom-up processes that arise from visual stimuli properties, such as luminance and contrast. The precise control of low-level visual stimuli properties is essential when investigating visual perception. Without it, for instance, investigations of bottom-up processes are virtually impossible and investigations of top-down processes risk major confounds when testing and formulating hypotheses. The SHINE (spectrum, histogram, and intensity normalization and equalization) toolbox for MATLAB [1] allows precise control of images' Fourier amplitude spectra, the normalizing and scaling of luminance and contrast, and exact histogram specification optimized for perceptual visual quality. Following Willenbockel and Cols (2010) advices, here we present an adaptation of the SHINE toolbox, named SHINE_color, which extends SHINE functionalities by allowing the parametrical manipulation of low-level properties of both static and animated colorful images.•Parametric manipulation of low-level properties of colorful images•Spectrum, histogram, and intensity normalization and equalization.

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
