Domain-Contextualized Inference: A Computable Graph Architecture for Explicit-Domain Reasoning

arXiv:2604.04344v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We establish a computation-substrate-agnostic inference architecture in which domain is an explicit first-class computational parameter. This produces domain-scoped pruning that reduces per-query search space from O(N) to O(N/K), substrate-independent execution over symbolic, neural, vector, and hybrid substrates, and transparent inference chains where every step carries its evaluative context. The contribution is architectural, not logical. We formalize the computational theory across five dimensions: a five-layer architecture; three domain computation modes including chain indexing, path traversal as Kleisli composition, and vector-guided computation as a substrate transition; a substrate-agnostic interface with three operations Query, Extend, Bridge; reliability conditions C1 to C4 with three failure mode classes; and validation through a PHQ-9 clinical reasoning case study. The computational theory including operational semantics, complexity bounds, monad structure, substrate transitions, and boundary conditions is the contribution of this paper.

Multi-Robot Multi-Queue Control via Exhaustive Assignment Actor-Critic Learning

arXiv:2604.03605v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study online task allocation for multi-robot, multi-queue systems with asymmetric stochastic arrivals and switching delays. We formulate the problem in discrete time: each location can host at most one robot per slot, servicing a task consumes one slot, switching between locations incurs a one-slot travel delay, and arrivals at locations are independent Bernoulli processes with heterogeneous rates. Building on our previous structural result that optimal policies are of exhaustive type, we formulate a discounted-cost Markov decision process and develop an exhaustive-assignment actor-critic policy architecture that enforces exhaustive service by construction and learns only the next-queue allocation for idle robots. Unlike the exhaustive-serve-longest (ESL) queue rule, whose optimality is known only under symmetry, the proposed policy adapts to asymmetry in arrival rates. Across different server-location ratios, loads, and asymmetric arrival profiles, the proposed policy consistently achieves lower discounted holding cost and smaller mean queue length than the ESL baseline, while remaining near-optimal on instances where an optimal benchmark is available. These results show that structure-aware actor-critic methods provide an effective approach for real-time multi-robot scheduling.

Domain-constrained knowledge representation: A modal framework

arXiv:2604.01770v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Knowledge graphs store large numbers of relations efficiently, but they remain weak at representing a quieter difficulty: the meaning of a concept often shifts with the domain in which it is used. A triple such as Apple, instance-of, Company may be acceptable in one setting while being misleading or unusable in another. In most current systems, domain information is attached as metadata, qualifiers, or graph-level organization. These mechanisms help with filtering and provenance, but they usually do not alter the formal status of the assertion itself. This paper argues that domain should be treated as part of knowledge representation rather than as supplementary annotation. It introduces the Domain-Contextualized Concept Graph (DCG), a framework in which domain is written into the relation and interpreted as a modal world constraint. In the DCG form (C, R at D, C'), the marker at D identifies the world in which the relation holds. Formally, the relation is interpreted through a domain-indexed necessity operator, so that truth, inference, and conflict checking are all scoped to the relevant world. This move has three consequences: ambiguous concepts can be disambiguated at the point of representation; invalid assertions can be challenged against their domain; cross-domain relations can be connected through explicit predicates. The paper develops this claim through a Kripke-style semantics, a compact predicate system, a Prolog implementation, and mappings to RDF, OWL, and relational databases. The contribution is a representational reinterpretation of domain itself. The central claim is that many practical failures in knowledge systems begin when domain is treated as external to the assertion. DCG addresses that by giving domain a structural and computable role inside the representation.

ATLAS: A Layered Constraint-Guided Framework for Structured Artifact Generation in LLM-Assisted MDE

arXiv:2510.25890v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: ATLAS is a constraint-guided generation framework for structured engineering artifacts whose outputs must satisfy explicit schemas, domain rules, and audit requirements. Rather than treating a large language model as a standalone generator, ATLAS places generation inside a model-driven workflow that separates domain representation, constraint compilation, and post-generation validation. ATLAS combines three components. A metamodel-integration stage builds a typed representation of domain entities and relations; in this study, it operates over authoritative AUTOSAR meta-model assets. An Integrated Constraint Model (ICM) compiles heterogeneous requirements into two operational layers: generation-time structural constraints and post-generation semantic/logical obligations. Constraint-Guided, Validation-Backed Generation (CVG) then combines Layer~1 constrained decoding, Layer~2 backend validation, and audit-guided repair. In the AUTOSAR instantiation, these Layer~2 obligations are realized through SHACL/SMT-style checks, illustrating how the same ICM can be connected to domain-specific validation backends. We evaluate ATLAS on AUTOSAR artifact generation at both single-file and multi-file scales. In the evaluated AUTOSAR setting, ATLAS consistently produces schema-valid single-file outputs and preserves perfect file completeness and XSD validity at multi-file scale, while SHACL/SMT checks and result analysis continue to expose residual system-level defects. The empirical picture is therefore one of bounded automation: ATLAS secures structural validity and turns higher-level failures into explicit, diagnosable objects within the generation workflow.
