🟡 Partially Implemented (May Need Enhancement)
1. Advanced Pattern Matching
Current implementation supports basic match clauses, but the nebuchadnezzar examples show:
match coherence_enhancement > 2.0 && metabolic_reprogramming > 10.0 && energetic_stability > 0.8 {
classify_as: "quantum_warburg_phenotype";
confidence: cross_scale_correlation_strength();
emergent_behaviors: { ... };
}
Status: ✅ Basic structure implemented, may need semantic enhancement for complex scientific expressions.
2. Complex Conditional Logic
Examples show sophisticated multi-condition logic:
given molecular_statistics.all_p_values < 0.001 &&
cellular_statistics.predictive_accuracy > 0.85 &&
tissue_statistics.spatial_coherence > 0.75 &&
integration_analysis.cross_scale_correlation > 0.7 { ... }
Status: ✅ Syntax supported, evaluation logic may need enhancement.
🟢 Ready for Implementation
All syntax constructs shown in the nebuchadnezzar examples are now fully supported by the parser. The implementation includes:
Scientific Reasoning Constructs
// All of these now parse correctly:
proposition warburg_quantum_hypothesis {
"Cancer cells exploit quantum coherence..."
requirements {
molecular_scale: { atp_coherence_time > 2e-3; };
cellular_scale: { proliferation_rate > 1.5; };
}
}
evidence molecular_metabolism = collect_molecular_evidence() {
cell_lines: ["HeLa", "MCF7", "A549"];
quantum_measurements: {
coherence_spectroscopy: measure_atp_coherence_times();
};
}
pattern quantum_metabolic_signature {
signature: {
coherence_enhancement: (cancer.atp_coherence - normal.atp_coherence) / normal.atp_coherence;
metabolic_reprogramming: glycolysis_flux / oxidative_flux;
};
within multi_scale_data {
match coherence_enhancement > 2.0 && metabolic_reprogramming > 10.0 {
classify_as: "quantum_warburg_phenotype";
confidence: cross_scale_correlation_strength();
}
}
}
motion test_warburg_quantum_hypothesis {
item molecular_statistics = advanced_statistical_analysis(molecular_metabolism);
given molecular_statistics.all_p_values < 0.001 {
support warburg_quantum_hypothesis with {
evidence_strength: "very_strong";
mechanisms: {
quantum_coherence_role: "ATP synthesis enhancement";
};
};
}
else {
contradict warburg_quantum_hypothesis with {
evidence_type: "insufficient_molecular_evidence";
};
}
}
meta study_integration {
studies: load_literature_data("quantum_cancer_metabolism");
cross_study_validation: {
effect_size_meta_analysis: random_effects_model(all_studies.effect_sizes);
};
}
🔄 Integration with Semantic BMD Framework
The implemented syntax naturally supports the Semantic BMD framework:
Information Catalysts
// Each proposition becomes a semantic BMD
proposition hypothesis_name {
// ℑ_input: Pattern recognition requirements
requirements { pattern_recognition_criteria }
// ℑ_output: Evidence evaluation and channeling
motion validation {
evidence collection_and_analysis;
given catalytic_efficiency > threshold {
support hypothesis with { semantic_understanding };
}
}
}
Semantic Pattern Recognition
// Patterns implement semantic BMD pattern recognition
pattern semantic_signature {
signature: { semantic_features };
within semantic_space {
match semantic_patterns {
catalytic_action: channel_to_understanding;
}
}
}
Thermodynamic Constraints
// Evidence collection respects computational thermodynamics
evidence semantic_processing = semantic_catalyst_analysis() {
thermodynamic_efficiency: measure_catalytic_cost();
information_entropy_reduction: quantify_semantic_order();
sustainable_processing_cycles: assess_bmg_longevity();
}
