# ADR-CE-011: Residual = Contradiction Energy
|
||||
|
||||
**Status**: Accepted
|
||||
**Date**: 2026-01-22
|
||||
**Parent**: ADR-014 Coherence Engine Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
## Context
|
||||
|
||||
The edge residual r_e = ρ_u(x_u) - ρ_v(x_v) measures local mismatch. This mathematical quantity needs a universal interpretation across domains.
|
||||
|
||||
## Decision
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual = contradiction energy - universal interpretation across domains.**
|
||||
|
||||
The residual represents:
|
||||
- **AI Agents**: Logical contradiction between belief and evidence
|
||||
- **Finance**: Regime mismatch between positions
|
||||
- **Medical**: Clinical disagreement between vitals and diagnosis
|
||||
- **Robotics**: Physical impossibility between sensor and plan
|
||||
- **Security**: Authorization violation between permission and action
|
||||
|
||||
The weighted residual norm |r_e|² is always "how much these two things disagree."
|
||||
|
||||
## Consequences
|
||||
|
||||
### Benefits
|
||||
- Universal semantics: "disagreement" makes sense everywhere
|
||||
- Quantitative: larger residual = bigger problem
|
||||
- Localizable: can identify which edges contribute most
|
||||
|
||||
### Risks
|
||||
- Restriction map design determines what "disagreement" means
|
||||
- Poor maps give meaningless residuals
