Abstract
Wind energy is a clean, sustainable, and renewable source. It is receiving a large amount of attention from governments and energy companies worldwide as it plays a significant role as an alternative source of energy in reducing carbon emissions. However, due to long-term operation in reduced and difficult weather conditions, wind turbine blades are always seriously damaged. Hence, damage detection in blade structure is essential to evaluate its operational condition and ensure its structural integrity and safety. We aim to use fractal, entropy, and chaos concepts as descriptors for the diagnosis of wind turbine blade condition. They are, respectively, estimated by the correlation dimension, approximate entropy, and the Lyapunov exponent. Formal statistical tests are performed to check how they are different across wind turbine blade conditions. The experimental results follow. First, the correlation dimension is not able to distinguish between all conditions of wind turbine blades. Second, approximate entropy is suitable to distinguish between healthy and erosion conditions and between healthy and mass imbalance conditions. Third, chaos is not a discriminative feature to distinguish between wind turbine blade conditions. Fourth, wind turbine blades with either erosion or mass imbalance exhibit less irregularity in their respective signals than healthy wind turbine blades.

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
