THE LIVE-SIGNAL METHOD: A Framework for Real-Time Scientific Reasoning in Open Networks
Abstract (Index)
The Live-Signal Method is a methodological framework for real-time scientific reasoning in open information networks.
It formalizes how early-stage scientific intuition can be shaped, constrained, and refined using live network signals and AI-assisted structural falsification, prior to formal experimentation.
Rather than replacing the classical scientific method, the Live-Signal Method reorganizes its front-end cognitive phase: signal detection, intuition filtering, structural clarification, and pre-hypothesis formation
Within the Oxygen States project, this method operates as a real-time signal intake layer, enabling high-volume public information streams to be transformed into traceable, falsifiable scientific questions
The framework explicitly preserves falsifiability and empirical rigor while accelerating the reasoning trajectory that precedes experimental design.
