Abstract
In order to address the problem that existing methods combining spectral data and machine learning for wood species identification rely on labeled samples, this study introduces unsupervised learning into the field of wood identification. It proposes a novel wood-identification model called DCVAE (deep conditional variational autoencoder)-PLCAE (pseudo-label convolutional autoencoders). Terahertz time-domain spectra of wood samples at breast height of five broadleaf and five coniferous species were obtained (40 samples of each species of wood, 400 in total). A conditional variational autoencoder was applied to augment the terahertz spectroscopy dataset. Subsequently, a pseudo-label-guided deep clustering model was developed to extract more discriminative deep features. The model was compared with three traditional clustering algorithms and four deep clustering methods. Clustering experiments and visualization results show that the comprehensive clustering performance of DCVAE-PLCAE is better than the other comparative algorithms and that the extracted low-dimensional features has a more straightforward structure. The algorithm in this study can solve the problems of fewer labeled samples and the difficulty of extracting discriminative features by traditional clustering algorithms.

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
