Core high-value exploration| Order | Candidate / gate | Execution intent |
|---|
| 1 | DEIM-D-FINE-X + Objects365 | Production training is running; evaluate all 24 retained epoch checkpoints with project AP50 after completion. |
| 2 | RT-DETRv4-X | Run as the core successor; retain a short R101-O365 control only while it remains information-positive. |
| 2C | RT-DETR R101-O365 control | Retain only while this short control remains information-positive. |
| 3 | Stable-DINO Swin-L vs DINO 5-scale Swin-L + Objects365 | Use a matched pilot before choosing the DINO-family representative. |
| 4 | Full run of the DINO-family winner | Fund only the pilot winner. |
| 5 | Accepted Co-DINO ViT-L result | Use project mAP50 0.716519508806631 as the strongest accepted reference entering the shared audit. |
Time- and priority-dependent| Order | Candidate / branch | Decision |
|---|
| 6 | DEIMv2-X | Use only if representation diversity, eligibility, and remaining time justify it. |
| 7 | LW-DETR-XLarge + Objects365 | Keep as a green time-dependent candidate; reassess redundancy if RF-DETR-2XL is approved. |
| 8 | RF-DETR-L | Use as the conditional-green Apache fallback if PML models are rejected. |
| 9 | RF-DETR-2XL | Do not run before the pending organizer ruling; if approved, it becomes the primary RF/LW successor candidate. |
