*November 15, 2025 | Ben Gilbert* Academic reproducibility has long been the holy grail of scientific research, yet most papers remain frustratingly opaque about their implementation details. After spending years wrestling with broken experiment scripts,… Building Reproducible Academic Papers: A Full-Stack Automation Approach for RF Signal Processing Research

We investigate post-softmax calibration for weightedensemble voting in RF signal classification. Neural network confidence scores are often miscalibrated, leading to overconfidentpredictions that degrade ensemble performance. Using per-modeltemperature scaling, we reduce Expected Calibration Error(ECE) from 15.4%… Confidence Calibration for Weighted Voting in RF Ensembles

Ensemble methods for RF signal classification combinepredictions from multiple neural networks to achieve superioraccuracy over individual models. However, modern neural networks often exhibit poor calibration—their confidence scoresdo not reflect actual prediction accuracy [1]. This miscalibration… Confidence Calibration for Weighted Voting in RF Ensembles

Practical RF signal processing pipelines routinely reduce input dimensionality for computational efficiency—downsampling FFTs from 1024 to 256 bins, truncating orinterpolating sequences to 128 samples. While these optimizations improve latency and memory usage, they introduceinformation loss… Resampling Effects: FFT→256; Seq→128

RF signal classification systems frequently encounter sequences shorter than their expected minimum length dueto hardware constraints, burst transmissions, or time-criticalapplications. Traditional ensemble classifiers handle this bystrict abstention—returning control to hierarchical fallbackmethods when N < 32.… Short-Signal Resilience: Learned Heads and Policy Boundaries for N < 32 IQ Classification

We wrap the parent call in a try/except; failures trigger a frequency rescue that classifies using magnitude FFTfeatures (centroid and band energies). The wrapper annotates path ∈ {primary, rescue} and timings. Failure injection covers: load… Fallback Paths: Hierarchical → Frequency-Based Rescue for RF Modulation Inference
