Overview

This repository collects a series of working papers on the formal structure of grounding in cognitive and artificial systems. The central thesis: hallucination is not a calibration failure but a frame misactivation— a structural diagnosis with implications for both interpretability and the design of abductive capacity in language models. Papers build on a shared architecture of NAC (Negative Abductive Capability), SSC (Selection Stability Coefficient), and the Interpretive Stack as a model of non-destructive frame accumulation.

Key Concepts

NAC

Negative Abductive Capability — the ability to withhold commitment before frame selection consolidates.

SSC

Selection Stability Coefficient — post-commitment frame coherence, defined independently of task specification T.

Interpretive Stack

Frames are never deleted; suppressed frames are archived and remain accessible for re-activation.

Alternative-Frame Index

The indexing structure over archived frames; enables structured revision without abductive regression.

Frame Misactivation

Hallucination reframed as incorrect frame selection — not noise, but a deterministic structural error.
