Abstract
Sky-wave over-the-horizon radar (OTHR) relies on bouncing radio waves off the ionosphere to achieve long-range surveillance, even beyond the Earth's curvature. A critical component of OTHR is the real-time frequency management system (FMS), which must continuously adjust to accommodate the dynamic ionospheric conditions, particularly in high-latitude and polar regions. To maintain consistent detection of distant targets, OTHR systems must periodically adjust operating frequencies and elevation angles in response to these fluctuating conditions. In this context, the Assimilation Canadian High Arctic Ionospheric Model (A-CHAIM) was developed to represent the short-term variability and unique features of the high-latitude and polar ionosphere. This model serves as a cutting-edge tool for real-time ionospheric modeling in these challenging regions; however, inconsistent availability and distribution of observations ultimately limit the scales of structuring that the model can capture. To address these limitations, Defence Research and Development Canada is working on several enhancements to improve A-CHAIM's performance and reliability in the future.

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
