Governable Individuals: An Identity Layer for Embodied Agents That Keep Learning
Xue Qin, Simin Luan, Cong Yang +1
The paper proposes a governance framework for embodied AI agents that continuously learn and change, introducing a public identity layer that controls authority, memory, and capabi…
Governed Caste Reassignment in Heterogeneous Swarms: An Asymmetric-Trust Protocol with Audited Operator Countersignature
Xue Qin, Simin Luan, Cong Yang +1
In heterogeneous robot swarms, caste reassignment (rebinding a robot to a new capability-bound role) is a high-frequency runtime event driven by battery, payload, and priority chan…
Governed Individuation: Cryptographically Decoupling an Agent's Learning from Its Authority
Xue Qin, Simin Luan, Cong Yang +1
Autonomous agents are moving from sandboxed text generators to operators of code, data, and physical infrastructure, and they increasingly learn while deployed. This reopens a ques…
Episodic-to-Semantic Consolidation Without Identity Drift
Xue Qin, Simin Luan, Cong Yang +1
Long-running adaptive intelligent agents face a structural tension between knowledge consolidation and information integrity. Memory consolidation is conventionally treated as an a…
Regression Test Selection for Updated Capability Modules in Compositional ML Systems via Atomic-Quality Probes
Xue Qin, Simin Luan, Cong Yang +1
Compositional machine-learning (ML) systems assemble runtime behavior from libraries of independently re-trained capability modules. Replacing one module raises a regression-testin…
ECM Contracts: Contract-Aware, Versioned, and Governable Capability Interfaces for Embodied Agents
Xue Qin, Simin Luan, Cong Yang +1
Embodied agents increasingly rely on modular capabilities that are installed, upgraded, composed, and governed at runtime, yet the interfaces between these modules are specified on…
