FA-98021 / Training label alignment / Open access
Augmented copies receive the base weight instead of divided weight · case 01
Augmented copies receive the base weight instead of divided weight.
ROOT CAUSE
Each source example is duplicated into several views without conserving its total training weight.
THE FAILURE
Each source example is duplicated into several views without conserving its total training weight.
Unsuccessful approach: Applying the full weight only to the first view conserves weight but discards supervision from the other views.
Case contract
Rows are [label,weight,view_count]. Return one [label,weight/view_count] row per view; nonpositive view counts emit nothing.
Why this case matters
A small deterministic training-data operation makes label ownership and ordering explicit.

HELD IN THE MEMBER ARCHIVE
The verified repair and its recorded checks are member-only.
This mechanism has 7 recorded checks per implementation. The open-access tier publishes the failure and the unsuccessful fix; the repaired source that passes every check, and the observations that prove it, are available to members.
Every case sharing this mechanism uses the same contract and the same repair, so this one record is held back for all of them.
Member access is invitation-based. Sign in with your invited account to inspect the repair.

Weights are finite numbers; view_count is a nonnegative integer. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
Observations recorded using Python 3.12.14 at 2026-09-30T16:48:08.406736+00:00.
