Abstract
Different task-based and resting-state imaging datasets provide complementary information about the organization of the human brain. Brain parcellations based on single datasets will, therefore, be biased toward the particular type of information present in each dataset. To overcome this limitation, we propose here a hierarchical Bayesian framework that can learn a probabilistic brain parcellation across numerous task-based and resting-state datasets, exploiting their combined strengths. The framework is partitioned into a spatial arrangement model that defines the probability of each voxel belonging to a specific parcel (the probabilistic group atlas), and a set of dataset-specific emission models that define the probability of the observed data given the parcel of the voxel. Using the human cerebellum as an example, we show that the framework optimally combines information from different datasets to achieve a new population-based atlas that outperforms atlases based on single datasets. Furthermore, we demonstrate that using only 10 min of individual data, the framework is able to generate individual brain parcellations that outperform group atlases.

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
