Abstract
Abstract This article focuses on detecting change points in high‐dimensional linear regression models with piecewise constant regression coefficients, moving beyond the conventional reliance on strict Gaussian or sub‐Gaussian noise assumptions. In the face of real‐world complexities, where noise often deviates into uncertain or heavy‐tailed distributions, we propose two tailored algorithms: a dynamic programming algorithm (DPA) for improved localization accuracy, and a binary segmentation algorithm (BSA) optimized for computational efficiency. These solutions are designed to be flexible, catering to increasing sample sizes and data dimensions, and offer a robust estimation of change points without requiring specific moments of the noise distribution. The efficacy of DPA and BSA is thoroughly evaluated through extensive simulation studies and application to real datasets, showing their competitive edge in adaptability and performance.

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
