Quick Start: A Hands-On Synthesis Example

This tutorial provides a practical, step-by-step walkthrough of the core synthesis workflow. Using the historical scientific debate between Plate Tectonics and Geosyncline theory, we demonstrate how to use the system to generate a novel scientific theory from two opposing viewpoints.

This guide is intended for developers and practitioners who want to understand the mechanics of the synthesis engine. It focuses on the “how-to” of building and running a synthesis experiment.

Tutorial Path

1. Introduction: Setting the stage with the historical context.
2. Building the SNOs: Constructing the parent knowledge objects.
3. Running the Synthesis: Generating a new, synthesized theory.
4. Analyzing the Results: Evaluating the output of the synthesis engine.
