Generalized Linear Models, and Survival Analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Generalized linear models extend classical linear models in two ways. They allow the fitting of a linear model to a dependent variable whose expected values have been transformed using a "link" function. They allow for a range of error families other than the normal. They are widely used to fit models to count data and to binomial-type data, including models with errors that may exhibit extra-binomial or extra-Poisson variation. The discussion extends to models in the generalized additive model framework, and to ordinal regression models. Survival analysis, also referred to as time-to-event analysis, is principally concerned with the time duration of a given condition, often but not necessarily sickness or death. In nonmedical contexts, it may be referred to as failure time or reliability analysis. Applications include the failure times of industrial machine components, electronic equipment, kitchen toasters, light bulbs, businesses, loan defaults, and more. There is an elegant methodology for dealing with "censoring" – where all that can be said is that the event of interest occured before or after a certain time, or in a specified interval.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
