DSFB Structural Semiotics Engine: A Survey of Applications Across Safety-Critical Domains - Prior Art Establishment and Domain Instantiation Framework for Deterministic Residual-Based Structural Interpretation

The DSFB Structural Semiotics Engine [1] is a domain-agnostic deterministic framework forresidual-based structural interpretation in dynamic systems. It treats residual trajectories asprimary inferential objects — reading drift direction, slew magnitude, and admissibility gram-mar state — rather than as scalar discrepancies to be thresholded. This survey establishesprior art for the application of the framework across 120 safety-critical and commercially sig-nificant domains, organized into twenty domain groups: energy systems, manufacturing andprocess control, transportation and propulsion, aerospace and defense, infrastructure and civilengineering, medical and biological systems, computing and software,…
