Abstract
Abstract In the first 600 sols of the Mars2020 mission, L S 5.6 o – 316.8 o , 46 cloud movies and 145 cloud surveys were collected to observe clouds at Jezero Crater, the landing site of the Perseverance Rover. Cloud movies were processed using the Mean-Frame Subtraction (MFS) method for revealing cloud structures, which were subsequently analyzed using digital-image processing. Two-dimensional Fast Fourier Transforms (2D-FFT) were used to compute cloud structure sizes ranging from 2.90 to 15.25 km for clouds between 30 and 50 km altitude, based on coincident Mars Climate Sounder vertical profiles of atmospheric water-ice. Same-value thresholding was used to detect the cloud structures in MFS-processed and projected cloud movies. The resolution dependence that was needed to resolve these structures over various thresholds was examined to find multifractal scaling of Mars clouds for resolutions between 0.1 and 1.6 km. We characterize the multiscaling observed in the images and its implications for the design of cloud-tracking cameras from the surface as well as for cloud-resolving models.

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
