Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract We propose a general mixture of Markov jump processes. The key novel feature of the proposed mixture is that the generator matrices of the Markov processes comprising the mixture are entirely unconstrained. The Markov processes are mixed with distributions that depend on the initial state of the mixture process. The maximum likelihood (ML) estimates of the mixture's parameters are obtained from continuous realizations of the mixture process and their standard errors from an explicit form of the observed Fisher information matrix, which simplifies the Louis ( Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B , 44:226–233, 1982) general formula for the same matrix. The asymptotic properties of the ML estimators are also derived. A simulation study verifies the estimates' accuracy. The proposed mixture provides an exploratory tool for identifying the homogeneous subpopulations in a heterogeneous population. This is illustrated with an application to a medical dataset.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
