IRIS Gate - Multi-Model Epistemic Convergence System
Copyright 2025 IRIS Gate Contributors

This product includes software developed by the IRIS Gate project
(https://github.com/templetwo/iris-gate).

================================================================================

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY NOTICE

The Epistemic Topology Framework (TYPE 0-3 Classification System) is the
core intellectual contribution of this project. This framework includes:

- Confidence ratio calculation methodology
- TYPE 0 (Crisis/Conditional): Ratio ~1.26, trigger-dependent logic
- TYPE 1 (Facts/Established): Ratio ~1.27, high-confidence knowledge
- TYPE 2 (Exploration/Novel): Ratio ~0.49, balanced exploration
- TYPE 3 (Speculation/Unknown): Ratio ~0.11, speculative territory

This framework is protected under the Apache License 2.0 and must be
attributed in derivative works.

THIRD-PARTY COMPONENTS

This software integrates with the following external services:

- Anthropic Claude API (https://www.anthropic.com)
- OpenAI API (https://openai.com)
- xAI Grok API (https://x.ai)
- Google Gemini API (https://ai.google.dev)
- DeepSeek API (https://www.deepseek.com)
- Perplexity API (https://www.perplexity.ai)

Usage of these APIs is subject to their respective terms of service.

================================================================================

RESEARCH DISCLAIMER

IRIS Gate is research software for epistemic analysis of multi-model
convergence. Results should be interpreted with appropriate scientific
rigor:

- TYPE 1 claims are not "proven" - they represent high-confidence patterns
- TYPE 2 claims require verification before use in research
- TYPE 3 claims are speculative and require human expert judgment
- Verification via Perplexity does not constitute peer review

Always apply domain expertise and critical thinking to IRIS Gate outputs.

================================================================================

PATENT NOTICE

The Epistemic Topology Framework and associated confidence ratio
calculation methods may be subject to patent applications. Use of this
software under the Apache License 2.0 includes a patent grant as
specified in the license.
