DIO/ODI-Informed Agentic Entity Resolution: Commit-Boundary Architecture Mapping

Status: derived architecture mapping · draft v0.2.0 · 4 November 2026.
Source alignment: working manuscript constraining_the_commit_boundary_v48 (4 November 2026); public arXiv:2610.37407 v1 is identified separately. Reference layer checked against Reference Model v0.5.0 and Reference Vocabulary v0.2.0.
Boundary: this mapping is not part of the canonical DIO/ODI Reference Vocabulary. It reuses canonical concept URIs and defines paper-specific architecture constructs only in its local namespace.
Validation: conceptual relation model; not an implementation, formal proof, or empirical result.

Purpose

This mapping makes explicit the internal relations among the diagnostic inputs, domain-governed constraint binding, mutation-specific propositions, evidence states, two-phase Supervisor, commit invariant, assumptions, and prospective evaluation protocol described in working manuscript constraining_the_commit_boundary_v48. Its section anchors refer to that 4 November 2026 working draft; public arXiv:2610.37407 v1 is identified separately and is not presumed to have identical section-level wording.

Diagnostic distinctions → domain-configured constraints → mutation-specific claims → claim-specific evidence eligibility → two-phase authorization → protected commit.

Architecture diagram: DIO/ODI diagnostic distinctions inform domain-governed constraint binding and identity-preserving constraints. The Agentic ER Planner proposes a mutation; the Supervisor derives required propositions. Retrieved observations pass through quarantine, UNVERIFIED active evidence, and claim-specific promotion into authorization-eligible evidence. Phase 1 authorizes the proposed mutation, Phase 2 validates the isolated candidate, and the commit gate requires PASS, valid scope, and valid versions. The guarantee depends on Assumptions 1–7. Dependency-aware evidence-flow control is shown outside the current architecture as future research.
Overview of the architecture-level relations. The dashed lower boundary represents future research outside the current commit-boundary contract. The detailed evidence admission and promotion diagram remains in the source paper.

How to read the mapping

1. Diagnostic foundation and constraint binding

The architecture draws on the canonical DIO/ODI vocabulary. Selected referential, semantic, temporal, and contextual reconstruction-failure distinctions inform a partial, domain-governed constraint-binding function ϼΩ. Its output is a domain-configured constraint set V_E, not an automatic inference from SKOS hierarchy.

The paper also gives concrete but explicitly illustrative mappings from selected canonical distinctions to domain-level constraint patterns.

Current DIO/ODI distinctionDomain-level constraint patternAuthorization consequence
Entity Substitution / Merge FailureLexical similarity or commercial adjacency does not establish co-reference.Do not merge without claim-specific evidence supporting the required co-reference proposition.
Temporal Discontinuity / Temporal MisalignmentRename and continuity claims are bound to the relevant referent and validity interval.Defer when temporal applicability or continuity is unresolved.
Semantic FragmentationMaterially incompatible claims affecting identity remain a conflict until reconciled.Clustering alone cannot resolve the conflict; defer the affected mutation.
Contextual Displacementbrand_of may be adequate in a brand catalogue but insufficient for legal-entity identity in a compliance context.Preserve relation typing and require evidence appropriate to the observation purpose.
Split Failure / valid continuityDocumented, temporally applicable evidence may support that distinct records denote one continuing entity.Resolve only when claim-specific evidence and applicable constraints pass.

The JSON-LD and Turtle graph mark these example mappings with the epistemic status illustrative.

2. Mutation and proposition binding

The Supervisor derives the required proposition set qm from the proposed mutation, its target/effect scope, and the applicable versioned domain policy. The Planner cannot substitute or weaken this set. The authorization record αm binds the derived claims, operation scope, and relevant versions.

3. Evidence admission and claim-specific eligibility

Observations enter quarantine before possible admission to Pactive as UNVERIFIED. That status permits Planner reasoning but is not positive authorization support. A separate claim-specific promotion process establishes eligibility for a particular proposition, role, observation domain, and temporal applicability. The eligible set Pauth(qm, ω) is a subset of Pactive, not a separate physical repository. Promotion excludes recorded shared-origin observations from independent corroboration and excludes shadow-derived claim bases. Authorization-eligible evidence can carry support, contradiction, or unresolved-indication roles; eligibility is not a verdict that a source is universally true.

4. Two-phase Supervisor and commit boundary

Phase 1 evaluates the proposed mutation and, on PASS, issues αm. Phase 2 validates the isolated realized candidate, re-derives qm, checks proposition coverage and conflicts, and verifies scope and versions against a consistent commit snapshot σc.

A protected commit requires EvaluateGraphConstraints = PASS, ScopeValid, and VersionsValid. Status precedence is BREACH > UNKNOWN_EVIDENCE > PASS. UNKNOWN_EVIDENCE leads to HALT_HITL only when policy requires review and a reviewer is available; otherwise it leads to DEFER_UNRESOLVED. Human adjudication requires a fresh authorization decision against current versions. One common retry budget applies across both lifecycle phases.

5. Conditional guarantee

The invariant is conditional on seven assumptions: domain-policy adequacy, correct claim-specific promotion, fail-closed authorization, enforced protected-write classification, Supervisor-derived claims, scope/version integrity, and integrity of the recorded promotion basis. The mapping does not claim semantic correctness or detection of unrecorded provenance dependencies.

6. Prospective evaluation

The protocol compares Baselines A, B, and C with a DIO/ODI-informed Challenger. Baseline C versus Challenger isolates the incremental mapping question. The comparison controls the case inventory, domain facts, evidence-promotion process, validator class and configuration, action resources, and decision budget; policy-derived qm differences are reported. Case construction is independent of frozen policy authorship and includes a taxonomy-neutral stratum. Baseline C authors are blinded to the DIO/ODI diagnostic mapping and Challenger policy. Prior DIO/ODI exposure is recorded; stronger inference requires independently constituted author teams allocated randomly or by expertise blocks, with uncertainty reflecting between-team variation.

Task- and policy-family-specific margins for acceptable coverage loss (δ_SRC) and false-commit increase (δ_RFCR) must be justified and fixed before outcomes, together with the uncertainty procedure. The binding success routes are (1) LS > −δSRC and UR < 0, or (2) LS > 0 and UR ≤ δRFCR. The uncertainty procedure must account for the two-route OR structure (e.g. simultaneous bounds or another justified multiplicity-control approach). If RFCR is undefined in either condition, RFCR-based routes are non-evaluable. Correctness, safety, admissibility, resolvability, and benignness use a common independent evaluation reference; PEVR separately assesses each condition’s operational contract.

No experimental results are reported. A generic baseline that matches or Pareto-dominates the Challenger counts against incremental mapping value for the task and policy family tested, not against DIO/ODI as a broader framework.

7. Future-research boundary

Dependency-aware evidence lineage and control of the full hypothesis-conditioned feedback loop are explicitly outside the current architecture and remain future work.

Machine-readable resources

The qualified relation assertions include a source section, an interpretation note, and an epistemic status: specified, assumed, illustrative, proposed-evaluation, or future-research. These assertions remain in the derived architecture namespace.

Relation to the existing Policy-as-Code mapping

This artifact is complementary to the DIO/ODI Commit-Boundary Contract – Policy-as-Code Authorization mapping. The present mapping reconstructs internal architecture relations; the existing mapping projects selected authorization obligations into OQA/Rego and Cedar capabilities and integration requirements.
