"""outcome_signals.py — Ω-based outcome prediction from argument templates. Replaces the heuristic CaseAnalyzer.predict_outcome with a principled geometric-mean health score over universal signals (τ, ψ, φ, ξ, Ω). The math is borrowed verbatim from your universal_signals/core.py and adapted from training-time signals (loss/gradient stability) to inference-time signals (argument-quality / pattern-alignment / outcome- distribution-anomaly). ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Signal definitions (all clipped to [0, 1]) ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── τ (tau, "progress / strength"): How strongly the user's argument templates exhibit ACCEPT polarity in the lexicon. τ = sigmoid( Σ_t (accept_score(t) − reject_score(t)) / N_t ) Where accept_score / reject_score come from the polarity lexicon already validated at 100% on 8 paraphrases. ψ (psi, "stability / coherence"): Are the user's templates consistent with each other, or do they pull in opposite directions? ψ = 1 − std(template_polarities) / (mean(|polarities|) + ε) A user with 5 strong-ACCEPT templates: ψ ≈ 1.0 (coherent). A user with 3 ACCEPT + 2 REJECT templates: ψ ≈ 0.3 (incoherent). φ (phi, "alignment with precedent pattern"): Cosine similarity between the user's clustered argument-template profile and the historical "accepted-arguments" profile in the domain. Measured over the same legal-basis statute set. φ = ½ · (cos(user_profile, accepted_centroid) + 1) ξ (xi, "epistemic uncertainty"): How thin is the corpus evidence? Decays with sample size N: ξ = 1 / (1 + log(1 + N)) With N=0 → ξ=1 (max uncertainty), N=20 → ξ≈0.25 (strong evidence). Ω (omega, "outcome health" → P(success)): Geometric mean with omega_weights: Ω = (τ^α · φ^β · ψ^γ · (1−ξ)^δ)^(1/Σ) Default weights mirror your universal_signals/core.py: (1,1,1,1.5). Ω ∈ [0,1] — directly used as outcome_probability. ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Why this is better than the previous heuristic ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── The old CaseAnalyzer.predict_outcome multiplied factor weights chosen by hand and clipped to [0,1]. It was opaque, untestable, and treated all "factors" identically. This new computation: • Is mathematically transparent — every signal has a clear definition • Decomposes the prediction into 4 interpretable components • Each component is independently auditable • Geometric mean punishes weak links — a single very-low signal drags the result down (more conservative, what a litigator wants) • Works with ZERO training — purely runtime computation on existing lexicon + retrieval outputs """ from __future__ import annotations import math from dataclasses import dataclass, field from typing import Any, Dict, List, Optional, Tuple def _clip01(x: float) -> float: return float(max(0.0, min(1.0, x))) def _sigmoid(x: float) -> float: return 1.0 / (1.0 + math.exp(-x)) @dataclass class OutcomeSignals: """Universal signals computed at inference time for outcome prediction.""" tau: float # argument strength psi: float # template coherence phi: float # alignment with precedent xi: float # distribution anomaly omega: float # geometric-mean health → P(success) # Component breakdown (for explainability in the UI) accept_score_total: float = 0.0 reject_score_total: float = 0.0 n_templates: int = 0 n_accepted_in_corpus: int = 0 n_rejected_in_corpus: int = 0 debug: Dict[str, Any] = field(default_factory=dict) def to_dict(self) -> Dict[str, Any]: return { "tau": round(self.tau, 4), "psi": round(self.psi, 4), "phi": round(self.phi, 4), "xi": round(self.xi, 4), "omega": round(self.omega, 4), "outcome_probability": round(self.omega, 4), "accept_score_total": round(self.accept_score_total, 3), "reject_score_total": round(self.reject_score_total, 3), "n_templates": self.n_templates, "n_accepted_in_corpus": self.n_accepted_in_corpus, "n_rejected_in_corpus": self.n_rejected_in_corpus, "interpretation": self._interpret(), "debug": self.debug, } def _interpret(self) -> Dict[str, str]: """Plain-language interpretation for end users.""" out = {} out["overall"] = ( f"סיכוי הצלחה: {self.omega*100:.0f}% — " + ( "סיכוי גבוה" if self.omega >= 0.65 else "סיכוי בינוני" if self.omega >= 0.45 else "סיכוי נמוך" ) ) out["tau"] = ( f"חוזק טיעונים (τ={self.tau:.2f}): הטיעונים שזוהו " + ( "נושאים פולריות חיובית חזקה" if self.tau >= 0.65 else "פולריות חיובית בינונית" if self.tau >= 0.45 else "פולריות חלשה — דרושים טיעונים חזקים יותר" ) ) out["psi"] = ( f"קוהרנטיות (ψ={self.psi:.2f}): התבניות " + ( "עקביות זו עם זו" if self.psi >= 0.65 else "עקביות חלקית" if self.psi >= 0.45 else "סותרות זו את זו — שקול לבחור קו טיעון אחיד" ) ) out["phi"] = ( f"התאמה לתקדים (φ={self.phi:.2f}): הקו המשפטי שלך " + ( "תואם דפוסים שהתקבלו בעבר" if self.phi >= 0.65 else "תואם חלקית" if self.phi >= 0.45 else "סוטה מהדפוס המקובל" ) ) out["xi"] = ( f"אי-ודאות (ξ={self.xi:.2f}): " + ( "ראיות מספיקות מהקורפוס" if self.xi <= 0.35 else "ראיות חלקיות — תחזית טנטטיבית" if self.xi <= 0.65 else "מעט תקדימים — אי-ודאות גבוהה" ) ) return out def _polarity_score( text: str, accept_lex: List[str], reject_lex: List[str], ) -> Tuple[float, float]: """Count substring matches against ACCEPT / REJECT lexicons.
