Abstract
Matrix-variate Gaussian-type or Wishart-type distributions in the real domain are widely used in the literature. When the exponential trace has an arbitrary power and when the factors involving a determinant and a trace enter into the model or a matrix-variate gamma-type or Wishart-type model with an exponential trace having an arbitrary power, they are extremely difficult to handle. One such model with factors involving a trace and a determinant and the exponential trace having an arbitrary power, in the real domain, is known in the literature as the Kotz model. No explicit evaluation of the normalizing constant in the Kotz model seems to be available. The normalizing constant that is widely used in the literature, is interpreted as the normalizing constant in the general model, and that is referred to as a Kotz model does not seem to be correct. One of the main contributions in this paper is the introduction of matrix-variate distributions in the real and complex domains belonging to the Gaussian-type, gamma-type, and type 1 and type 2 beta-types, or Mathai’s pathway family, when the exponential trace has an arbitrary power and explicit evaluations of the normalizing constants therein. All of these models are believed to be new. Another new contribution is the logistic-based extensions of the models in the real and complex domains, with the exponential trace having an arbitrary exponent and connecting to extended zeta functions introduced by this author recently. The techniques and steps used at various stages in this paper will be highly useful for people working in multivariate statistical analysis, as well as for people applying such models in engineering problems, communication theory, quantum physics, and related areas, apart from statistical applications.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
