Implement verification at three distinct layers—continuous
Implement verification at three distinct layers—continuous signals, periodic samples, and infrequent structural audits—calibrated to the stakes, maturity, and track record of the delegation.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from Signal detection involves independent dimensions of (signal detection has independent sensitivity/specificity dimensions), Every detection system faces a fundamental tradeoff between (detection systems face sensitivity-false alarm tradeoffs), and Ultradian and Circadian Cognitive Rhythms (cognitive capacity varies across ultradian/circadian cycles). The principle prescribes layered verification that optimizes the sensitivity-specificity tradeoff while accounting for variable capacity. General across monitoring contexts.
