Abstract
The goal of discrete tomography is to reconstruct an unknown function $f$ via a given set of line sums. In addition to requiring accurate reconstructions, it is favourable to be able to perform the task in a timely manner. This is complicated by the presence of ghosts, which allow many solutions to exist in general. In this paper we consider the case of a function $f : A \to \mathbb{R}$ where $A$ is a finite grid in $\mathbb{Z}^3$. Previous work has shown that in the two-dimensional case it is possible to determine all solutions in parameterized form in linear time (with respect to the number of directions and the grid size) regardless of whether the solution is unique. In this work, we show that a similar linear method exists in three dimensions under the condition of nonproportionality. We show that the condition of nonproportionality is fulfilled in the case of three-dimensional boundary ghosts.

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
