Abstract
A diverse range of interpolation methods, including Kriging, spline/minimum curvature and radial basis function interpolation exist for interpolating spatially incomplete geoscientific data. Such methods use various spatial properties of the observed data to infer its local and global behaviour. In this study, we exploit the adaptability of locally interacting systems from statistical physics and develop an interpolation framework for numerical geoscientific data called Interacting Immediate Neighbour Interpolation (IINI), which solely relies on local and immediate neighbour correlations. In the IINI method, medium-to-long range correlations are constructed from the collective local interactions of grid centroids. To demonstrate the functionality and strengths of IINI, we apply our methodology to the interpolation of ground gravity, airborne magnetic and airborne radiometric datasets. We further compare the performance of IINI to conventional methods such as minimum curvature surface fitting. Results show that IINI is competitive with conventional interpolation techniques in terms of validation accuracy, while being significantly simpler in terms of algorithmic complexity and data pre-processing requirements. IINI demonstrates the broader applicability of statistical physics concepts within the field of geostatistics, highlighting their potential to enrich and expand traditional geostatistical methods.

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
