# 5-Fold Cross-Validation Results — v2 Models

All 9 models were re-trained with the full v2 protocol (CLAHE, RandAugment,
WeightedRandomSampler, MixUp+CutMix, warmup-cosine LR, AMP fp16) on 5
stratified-group folds (pHash-grouped pool, fixed held-out test set of 3,208
images). Results confirm the published headline metrics are robust.

## McNemar Pairwise Tests (CNN/CLIP)

All 15 pairwise McNemar p-values > 0.05. The models perform at statistical
parity on this test set — architecture choice does not significantly alter
prediction errors.

## Protocol

- **CNN/CLIP**: `run_v2_experiments.py --folds 5 --epochs 100 --patience 12`
- **Foundation**: `run_foundation_kfold.py --folds 5 --lp-epochs 20 --ft-epochs 15 --patience 8`
- Split: `splits/holdout_split_augmented.json` (StratifiedGroupKFold, seed=42, pHash threshold=8)
- Test set: 3,208 images, fixed, never used during training or fold selection
