Analyze observed behavior patterns to identify governing variables in a research field

  • Identifies unstated rules driving behavior within a specific domain.
  • Depends on analyzing observed behavioral data and applying Argyris framework.
  • Decides by systematically examining observed behaviors for underlying principles and assumptions.
  • Delivers identified governing variables to facilitate dialectical reformulation and further analysis.

ablation-brainstormRemove components one by one, observe system changes to reveal hidden dependencies and generate ideas from structural gaps.
ablation-component-mappingMap system architecture to ablatable units for ablation studies
ablation-designDesign ablation studies to isolate component contributions in ML systems
ablation-executionRemove components one by one from a system, record the response/impact of each removal.
abp-vulnerability-classificationClassify assumptions on 2 axes — load-bearing (how much conclusion depends on it) × vulnerable (how likely to be false). Focuses attention on High-Load × High-Vulnerable quadrant.
abstraction-extractionExtract abstract principles from concrete domain cases. Strips domain-specific details to reveal transferable mechanisms.
abstraction-ladderPerform bisociation at multiple abstraction levels
abstraction-ladderingMove between concrete and abstract framings — 3 levels up (Why?) and 3 levels down (How?) to find the most productive research level.
abstraction-to-designAbstract biological principle to design principle. Bridge from biology to engineering.
