Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Turing’s instability has been widely introduced to explain the formation of several biological and ecological patterns, such as the skin patterning of fish or animals, wings of butterflies, pigmentation, and labyrinth patterns of the cerebral cortex of mammals. Such a mechanism may occur in the ecosystem due to the differential diffusion dispersal that happen if one of the constituent species results in the activator or the prey, showing a tendency to undergo autocatalytic growth. The diffusion of the constituent species activator is a random mobility function called passive diffusion. If the other species in the system (the predator/inhibitor) disperses sufficiently faster than the activator, then the spatially uniform distribution of species becomes unstable, and the system will settle into a stationary state. This paper introduced Turing’s mechanism in our reaction–taxis–diffusion model to simulate the harmful algal bloom (HAB) pattern. A numerical approach, the Runge–Kutta method, was used to deal with this system of reaction–taxis–diffusion equations, and the findings were qualitatively compared to the aerial patterns obtained by a drone flying over Torment Lake in Nova Scotia (Canada) during the bloom season of September 2023.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
