Abstract
Global cesarean section (CS) rates continue to rise, with the Robson classification widely used for analysis. However, Robson Group 2A patients (nulliparous women with induced labor) show disproportionately high CS rates that cannot be fully explained by demographic factors alone. This study explored how the Artificial Intelligence Dystocia Algorithm (AIDA) could enhance the Robson system by providing detailed information on geometric dystocia, thereby facilitating better understanding of factors contributing to CS and developing more targeted reduction strategies. The authors conducted a comprehensive literature review analyzing both classification systems across multiple databases and developed a theoretical framework for integration. AIDA categorized labor cases into five classes (0-4) by analyzing four key geometric parameters measured through intrapartum ultrasound: angle of progression (AoP), asynclitism degree (AD), head-symphysis distance (HSD), and midline angle (MLA). Significant asynclitism (AD ≥ 7.0 mm) was strongly associated with CS regardless of other parameters, potentially explaining many "failure to progress" cases in Robson Group 2A patients. The proposed integration created a combined classification providing both population-level and individual geometric risk assessment. The integration of AIDA with the Robson classification represented a potentially valuable advancement in CS risk assessment, combining population-level stratification with individual-level geometric assessment to enable more personalized obstetric care. Future validation studies across diverse settings are needed to establish clinical utility.

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
