Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A new deconvolution strategy, reverse curve fitting, was developed to determine peak positions and independent intensities of overlapping Fourier transform (FT) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) bands. From the third-order derivative of the overlapping band, the peak position was estimated from its zero-crossing point and the peak intensity was quantitated by partial curve matching with its primary maxima. Every matched peak in the overlapping band was dismembered in turn to weaken the overlap until an independent peak was filtered out. The deconvolution can be refined progressively by manually tuning the peak positions and peak widths. In a simulation study, a closely overlapped 13C NMR triplet (overlapping degrees between 0.5 and 1.0) at a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 20:1 was quantitatively deconvoluted by our reverse curve fitting procedure with a routine denoising technique. The noise interference and denoising technique were also studied in the simulation. A real FT-NMR overlapping band of Ethylbenzene (300 MHz) was satisfactorily deconvoluted and compatible with higher resolution literature spectral data. A more complicated overlapping NMR band of Tetraphenyl porphyrin was studied as well. This new approach to the deconvolutions is applicable to other FT spectroscopies.

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.
