Abstract
With the emergence of studies on automated vehicles, the rapid development of new systems raises questions about road safety certification. Numerous methods have been developed to address this, such as Distance-Based and Scenario-Based approaches. The latter offers a time-saving advantage by avoiding redundant testing and focusing on traffic situations that pose risks to the system. However, scenarios can vary in levels of abstraction depending on the system’s design. Many studies attempt to identify safety criteria using indicators based on real-world scenarios, but perform at a low level of abstraction for the scenario description. Only a little draws analysis at the primary, i.e., abstract, level. Consequently, the qualification of abstract scenarios concerning safety indicators remains difficult and extremely dependent on field observations without harmonization. No link is clearly established yet between the abstract description of the experienced situation and indicators resulting from field observations. In a generic sense, abstract levels are managed at the expert level. This study establishes a rare connection between concrete (low abstraction level) and functional (high abstraction level) scenarios to compute the criticality of traffic scenarios using UAV data. Our approach develops the methodology to unify expert knowledge (top-down approach) with field observations (bottom-up approach).

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
