Candidate

This page is generated from the code and must not be edited by hand.

A proposed edge, before the decoder has chosen a globally consistent subset.

Candidates are generated within bounded indexes, never all-pairs. Each carries its evidence vector whole and a decision tier assigned by classification rather than by threshold. A score exists only to order candidates within one tier.
