Core Emotion Framework (CEF): Technical Specification 6 (TS-6)

The Core Emotion Framework (CEF) Technical Specification 6 (TS‑6) defines thecanonical structural‑constructivist mapping engine used to decompose any humanemotional expression or experience into the ten core functional powers of the CEF.Building on the architectural definitions of TS‑1, the validation logic of TS‑2, thecomputational structures of TS‑3, and the simulation protocols of TS‑4, TS‑6establishes the formal rules, representational standards, and canonical constraintsgoverning emotional composition. The specification introduces a hybrid symbolic–vector representation format, a deterministic mapping pipeline, and amachine‑readable schema for computational and semantic‑web integration. TS‑6provides the authoritative framework for identifying active functional powers,assigning intensities, normalizing ratios, validating compositions, and ensuringstructural fidelity across all CEF‑based lexicons, models, and applications. Thisdocument serves as the foundational standard for the EL‑Series global emotionallexicon and all future compositional, analytic, and computational work within the CEFcanon.
