Abstract
Abstract Extended redundancy analysis (ERA) is a statistical approach to component-based multivariate regression modeling that explores interrelationships among multiple sets of while incorporating regression with a data-reduction technique. The extant models that utilize ERA have assumed the outcome variables with the same data type. Also, ERA models focused on estimating direct pathways only without explicitly addressing mediation effects. In this paper, ERA is extended to handle multiple mediators and mixed types of outcome variables by adopting a Bayesian framework, taking into account correlation structure among all of the outcome variables. The proposed method develops an algorithm that derives the joint posterior distribution of parameters using a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm. Simulations and an empirical dataset are provided to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed method.

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
