Forward Inference
Reference: This page is a source-based technical synthesis of the LaTeX chapter cited below. For exact syntax, availability or ABI signatures, verify the versioned source, manifest and executable tests.
Scope and source boundary
Forward inference must preserve the semantic premise, role bindings and derivation trace of its conclusion.
Logical inference transforms and checks semantic structures under explicit relation and role constraints. The neuro-symbolic source discusses homomorphisms, implications, transitivity, resolution and provenance as separate mechanisms. A predicted or numerically similar candidate must not be presented as a proven graph fact.
Engineering rules
- Bind candidate roles and identities before accepting a match.
- Differentiate a derived conclusion from an observed input or unverified proposal.
- Retain proof support and derivation provenance when asserting a semantic fact.
- Bound search and make fallbacks explicit when inference is too expensive.
