5-Layer Architecture
The Sensor, Translator, Logic Engine, DNA, and Pattern Recognition pipeline that transforms raw signals into deterministic decisions.
Definition
The 5-Layer Architecture is the structural backbone of Sentient OS. Each layer has a distinct function: the Sensor captures every signal at the protocol level (2.4M+ signals/sec); the Translator classifies intent and tonality at 0.94 confidence; the Logic Engine applies contextual weighting across 221k+ active KPI aggregations; the DNA layer encodes every actor in 48-dimensional vector space; and Pattern Recognition surfaces 7 validated behavioral archetypes through unsupervised learning. Signals flow sequentially through the layers, orchestrated by Nami, with full traceability from raw input to final recommendation. The architecture is designed for causality - understanding why things happen, not just what happened.
Why It Matters
The 5-Layer Architecture is what makes Sentient OS a Decision Layer rather than another dashboard. Each layer adds a dimension of understanding that traditional analytics tools lack.

Layer 3 of the 5-Layer Architecture - contextual weighting that links semantic metrics into 221k+ active KPI aggregations.
DNA Layer
Layer 4 of the 5-Layer Architecture - every actor encoded as a point in 48-dimensional vector space. Mathematics instead of databases.

Layer 5 of the 5-Layer Architecture - unsupervised learning that surfaces 7 validated behavioral archetypes from vector spaces.
Nami
The orchestration layer - the conductor that coordinates data streams, models, and ontologies so the right signals reach the right decisions.
Decision Layer
An intelligent system that sits above existing stack and activates it. Not another dashboard-a system that decides.
