Abstract
Nature depends on the inherent unpredictability of randomness, a significant force influencing hydrometeorological processes. While physics provides sophisticated models, understanding the variability within randomness is crucial for evaluating environmental risks. Despite the availability of numerous stochastic models tailored to specific statistical properties, identifying essential features for accurate simulations across time, space, and scales remains a challenge. This presentation outlines the progress in CoSMoS, a user-friendly stochastic modeling framework that advances from basic scenarios to complex multisite and space-time simulations. The underlying philosophy of this framework is to faithfully replicate the probabilities describing the occurrences of magnitudes and correlations in space and time. CoSMoS excels in generating time series for various hydroclimatic variables and simulating intricate space-time phenomena, as demonstrated by its effectiveness in replicating storms, cyclones, and air mass collisions. This showcases its versatility in capturing complex behaviors across different scales.ReferencesPapalexiou, S. M., Serinaldi, F., & Clark, M. P. (2023).

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
