Governed Deduction framework distinguishes premise relevance from authorization

Researchers have introduced Governed Deduction (GD), a new framework for reasoning systems that distinguishes between premise relevance and authorization. GD formalizes this by using a transition-local admission predicate, admit(p, tau, S), to determine if a premise is permitted for a specific logical transition. An RBAC-augmented Spider benchmark was used to create authorization pairs, and initial experiments showed high accuracy for a joint controller, though a transition-only controller also performed well. Further analysis revealed that while the benchmark successfully instantiates policy-grounded authorization beyond mere relevance, current linear representations struggle to capture this relationship, highlighting the need for controlled negative findings and leakage audits in evaluating policy-sensitive reasoning.

    Governed Deduction: Policy-Grounded Premise Authorization Beyond Relevance

    arXiv:2609.31029v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reasoning systems usually treat premise use as a question of relevance: if a fact is available and useful, it may be selected for inference. Authorization imposes a different constraint: a premise may be represented and logically us…
