FLAE

Deterministic Truth Discovery Architecture

FLAE replaces subjective probabilistic summaries with an immutable, typed Atomic Fact Ledger paired with a multi-document arbitration engine. Built for regulatory filings, statutory audits, and corporate financial dossiers.

1. Four-Stage Epistemic Pipeline

Every document uploaded to a workspace undergoes a strict 4-stage pipeline that enforces structural integrity before any claim is matched or arbitrated:

STAGE 01

Document Parsing

High-fidelity text and table segmentation preserves tabular structures, headers, and page coordinate anchors.

STAGE 02

Fact Extraction

Extracts atomic claims consisting of subject, attribute, numerical normalization, verbatim quote, and context envelope.

STAGE 03

Vector Indexing

Semantic embedding of attributes and subjects enables cross-filing similarity matching with cosine distance thresholds.

STAGE 04

Cross Arbitration

Pairwise evaluation across documents checks context bounds to classify claims as Corroborated, Contradicted, or Reconciled.

2. System Architecture

Complete architectural flow mapping the multi-document ingestion pipeline, coordinate-anchored fact extraction, context envelope formulation, immutable ledger storage, and cross-document epistemic arbitration.

3. 6-Dimensional Context Envelope Specification

Schema: ContextEnvelope

Standard AI summarizers falsely report contradictions when comparing figures that look comparable on the surface but differ in accounting methodology, organizational scope, or reporting period. FLAE resolves this by isolating each claim within six explicit dimensions:

ContextEnvelope.jsonStrict Typed Schema
{
  "temporal_period": "FY2023-24",            // e.g., FY24, Q4 FY24, 9M FY24
  "period_type": "duration",                 // duration | point_in_time
  "entity_scope": "consolidated",            // consolidated | standalone | subsidiary | cohort
  "geography": "India",                      // statutory operating geography
  "accounting_methodology": "reported_ind_as",// reported_ind_as | pro_forma | revised_estimate
  "additional_qualifiers": "Full year audited consolidated figures including Spoton Logistics"
}

4. Arbitration Decision Matrix

CORROBORATED

Identical Assertions

Both filings assert mathematically and semantically compatible claims under the same context envelope. Example: identical express parcel volume numbers across the annual report and shareholder presentation.

CONTRADICTED

Genuine Conflict

Claims disagree under matching context envelopes without a valid statutory reconciliation. Example: conflicting board of director counts or irreconcilable capital expenditure figures.

RECONCILED

Divergence Factor Identified

Apparent numeric differences are fully explained by divergence in organizational scope (Standalone ₹74,540 M vs Consolidated ₹81,415 M) or temporal granularity (FY vs Q4).

Verbatim Auditability Guarantee

Every atomic fact stored in FLAE requires an exact verbatim quotation, document UUID, and page number reference. Probabilistic hallucination is strictly prevented: if a claim cannot be tied to an explicit coordinate in the source PDF, the ingestion engine rejects the candidate claim into the Failure Audit trail.
