Abstract
We extend our previous work into error-free representations of transform basis functions by presenting\na novel error-free encoding scheme for the fast implementation of a Linzer-Feig Fast Cosine Transform (FCT)\nand its inverse. We discuss an 8x8 L-F scaled Discrete Cosine Transform where the architecture uses a new\nalgebraic integer quantization of the 1-D radix-8 DCT that allows the separable computation of a 2-D DCT without\nany intermediate number representation conversions. The resulting architecture is very regular and reduces\nlatency by 50% compared to a previous error-free design, with virtually the same hardware cost.

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
