Technological Uncertainties

Active investigations where the outcome cannot be determined through standard practice. Each represents genuine scientific or technological uncertainty requiring systematic study.

ACTIVE INVESTIGATION

Bradley-Terry peer ranking improves multi-agent consensus quality

Whether probabilistic pair-comparison models generalize to LLM output quality ranking in healthcare compliance contexts.

EXP002 EXP003
ACTIVE · PHASE 3 COMPLETE

NL2SQL parsing of unstructured caregiver voice/text notes into compliance events

Whether LLM-assisted pipeline achieves sufficient precision for audit trail use on raw caregiver language. Phase 4 (production validation) in progress.

EXP006 EXP007
ACTIVE · BC COMPLETE

Jurisdiction-portable rule externalization via YAML configuration

Whether compliance rules can be externalized so adding a new jurisdiction requires only configuration changes, not code changes. BC done; second province (ON or AB) pending.

EXP012 EXP013
ACTIVE INVESTIGATION

FOIPPA-compliant dual-LLM routing — phase validation in progress

Whether the de-identification gate + dual-routing architecture meets BC data sovereignty requirements under operational load. Architecture validated; production testing ongoing.

EXP017
ACTIVE INVESTIGATION

Canadian healthcare optimization benchmark from public data

Whether a Canadian-specific AI benchmark (30-day readmission, HSMR) is constructable from CIHI + ICES + PopulationDataBC with ICD-10-CA normalization. No published public benchmark currently exists for Canada.

EXP021
ACTIVE INVESTIGATION

NL2SQL caregiver notes — Phase 4 production validation

Whether structured compliance event extraction from voice/text notes achieves audit-ready precision under production conditions with diverse care staff writing styles.

EXP006 EXP007

Systematic Investigation Methodology

CHAI's R&D uses two interlocked methodologies: Hardy confidence states for epistemological rigor, and the UEP 4-phase framework for systematic documentation — both designed to satisfy CRA's systematic investigation requirement.

Hardy 3-State → CRA Mapping

About this package

This package was generated by TEAOS SR&ED infrastructure built in November 2025 as a 12-agent swarm (16/16 tests passing). The generator reads directly from the experiment registry — a JSON-backed audit trail updated via git post-commit hooks. Hardy confidence scores are computed by a 7-chamber Byzantine consensus algorithm, not manually assigned.

The git commit hashes cited in each finding are real commits in the CHAI repository. They can be independently verified via git show <hash>.
