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

The Core Emotion Framework (CEF) Technical Specification 6 (TS‑6) defines the
canonical structural‑constructivist mapping engine used to decompose any human
emotional 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, the
computational structures of TS‑3, and the simulation protocols of TS‑4, TS‑6
establishes the formal rules, representational standards, and canonical constraints
governing emotional composition. The specification introduces a hybrid symbolic–
vector representation format, a deterministic mapping pipeline, and a
machine‑readable schema for computational and semantic‑web integration. TS‑6
provides the authoritative framework for identifying active functional powers,
assigning intensities, normalizing ratios, validating compositions, and ensuring
structural fidelity across all CEF‑based lexicons, models, and applications. This
document serves as the foundational standard for the EL‑Series global emotional
lexicon and all future compositional, analytic, and computational work within the CEF
canon.
