Summary

PUTMAN is a compact, implementable architecture for modeling interpretation shift in recursive symbolic systems. Meaning is represented as a weighted, typed relational structure that is selectively activated under contextual constraints and reconstructed into ranked candidate interpretations. The framework includes modulators for affect (E), recursion depth (d), and rigidity (ρ), plus minimal examples, a minimal evaluation protocol, and reference pseudocode.
