Abstract
We study context localization for generalized level-based evaluation in knowledge-based systems. The framework models situations where a structured nonnegative score, defined on facts, rules, cases, criteria or evidence units, is evaluated through conditional aggregation tests on admissible knowledge contexts. The generalized level measure maximizes a monotone set function over all contexts whose aggregated support reaches a prescribed level. We characterize when filtering the score by a context $B$ is equivalent to localizing the admissible contexts by intersection with $B$. The main theorem shows that this consistency holds for all monotone set functions if and only if two structural conditions are satisfied: monotonicity with respect to contexts and a reduction property excluding positive localized support outside $B$. We analyze pointwise and block-generated mechanisms producing the reduction property, extend the result to parameterized systems, and interpret it as a stability criterion for context-dependent evidence selection, non-additive support evaluation and level-based knowledge aggregation.
Investigating how experienced developers use agents in building software, including their motivations, strategies, task suitability, and sentiments finds that while experienced developers value agents as a productivity boost, they retain their agency in software design and implementation out of insistence on fundamental software quality attributes.
An adaptive surrogate modeling method for problems with very high-dimensional spatio-temporal outputs is developed that combines exploration and exploitation to improve the surrogate model accuracy with the fewest possible runs of the expensive physics-based model.

This work introduces Behavior-Outcome Freedom (F), a pre-synthesis diagnostic of signed behavior-outcome rank mismatch, and formalizes its candidate-conditional role through Signed Anchor-Rank Transfer, which preserves validated capability resources, removes runtime orchestration, and conditionally inherits pipeline guidance using a calibrated rule over F.
