C.11.CRC:11 - SoTA Echoing
| Source line | Adopted move | Limit retained here |
|---|---|---|
Current C.11, A.19, and C.29 | Keep choice, comparison mechanisms, and mathematical-lens use with their current owners. | Internal architecture is not evidence for domain quantities. |
| Ortega and Braun, information-processing costs in decision making, 2013 | Keep the resource costs of information acquisition and computation explicit in the decision. | Statistical-physics form is a model under assumptions, not proof of literal physical free-energy minimization. |
| Blei, Kucukelbir, and McAuliffe, Variational Inference: A Review for Statisticians, 2017 | Keep target distribution, approximation family, optimization, speed/scale, and uncertainty trade-offs visible. | Historical field anchor; it does not define calculus-of-variations design or general contribution. |
| MIT OpenCourseWare, Matrix Calculus for Machine Learning and Beyond, 2023 calculus-of-variations material | Treat a function, trajectory, or field as the varied object under admissible variation and boundary structure. | Course material supplies a mathematical distinction, not FPF ontology or physical evidence. |
| Huan, Jagalur, and Marzouk, optimal experimental design review, 2024/2026 | Keep design variables, utility, model assumptions, computational cost, robustness, and myopic/non-myopic boundaries explicit. | Specialist experiment design remains outside this finite comparison pattern. |
| Current systems, operations, finance, and human-capability cases named in the receiving DPF programme | Stress-test finite baseline, interactions, constraints, uncertainty, and option effects across unlike fields. | Cross-field recurrence establishes the comparison spine, not transferable formulas, thresholds, or authority. |
Refresh only the affected source-use row when a newer result changes one Solution distinction or shows that a field-independent method can replace it. Older mathematical anchors remain historical where current work has repaired their limits.
