Medical data governance and deterministic arbitration system for evidence-bound artificial intelligence outputs
A system and method are disclosed for policy-constrained symbolic rendering of artificial intelligence outputs using deterministic evidence structures and authenticated display controls. Governed records derived from device, clinical, operational, environmental, or multi modal data are normalized, lineage-tracked, and assembled into deterministic evidence packs whose ranking, augmentation, pruning, and ordering are reproducible and traceable. Governed prompts constructed from these evidence packs are provided to internal or external artificial intelligence models under controlled, deterministic invocation parameters. Candidate model outputs—textual or multimodal—are symbolically interpreted, evaluated by a multi-policy engine, and constrained into compliant renderable forms. A cryptographic render-token architecture binds each constrained output to its governing evidence, policy state, model and tokenizer identity, viewport or session binding, environmental conditions, temporal validity, and decision lineage. A display gate renders only upon successful token validation and revocation checks. Correction-propagation mechanisms revoke affected tokens, perform deterministic replay, and issue superseding views for reliable, auditable use in safety-critical environments.
1 . A computer-implemented system comprising:
one or more processors;
one or more non-transitory memory devices storing processor-executable instructions; and
one or more databases forming a governed store accessible by the one or more processors, wherein the processor-executable instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving data, associating the data with identifiers, normalizing the data, applying a digital signature or message authentication code to each governed record as an integrity protection mechanism, and persisting the governed records in the governed store;
constructing a deterministic evidence pack by deterministically selecting governed records from the governed store according to a question or request, forming a deterministic evidence pack having a canonical deterministic ordering of governed records and a pack identifier, and enforcing a context-capacity acceptance band by augmenting or pruning governed records according to deterministic rules based on tokenizer identity and available representational capacity, wherein factual validity is determined exclusively by deterministic comparison of symbolic or textual elements of a model-produced output against governed records contained in the deterministic evidence pack;
constructing a governed prompt from the deterministic evidence pack, verifying that a tokenizer identity associated with a selected model matches a tokenizer identity used to form the deterministic evidence pack, invoking the model using deterministic decoding settings, and recording model version, tokenizer identity, governed prompt hash, and the pack identifier in a compliance ledger as part of an immutable audit trail;
analyzing a candidate output produced by the model, segmenting the candidate output into sentences, comparing each sentence to the governed records contained in the deterministic evidence pack, and classifying each sentence as supported, contradicted, or not addressed;
applying versioned machine-interpretable policy rules to the arbitration results and metadata associated with governed records, consent, role, jurisdiction, and purpose of use, to determine one or more rendering constraints;
executing a display-gate rendering process as a sole authorized rendering pathway for model-generated content, the display-gate rendering process requiring, as a mandatory precondition to any rendering, presentation of a valid, cryptographically authenticated render token corresponding to a matching ledger entry in the compliance ledger, masking or removing unsupported or disallowed content, and generating a cryptographically authenticated render token binding the constrained output to at least a pack identifier, a citation checksum, a model identity, a tokenizer identity, a viewport or session binding, and a policy version identifier, said render token being appended to the compliance ledger;
validating, by the one or more processors, cryptographic signature correctness, structural integrity, evidence pack binding, citation checksum consistency, and ledger correspondence of each render token, and refusing rendering upon validation failure; and
generating revocation entries in the compliance ledger when governed records are corrected or superseded, and invalidating render tokens whose lineage depends on superseded or incorrect governed records;
wherein the display-gate rendering process refuses to render any constrained or graphical output unless the presented render token is valid, non-revoked, cryptographically authenticated, and matched to a corresponding entry in the compliance ledger.
