# Analogical Transfer

Systematic structure-mapping from source to target domain following Gentner's structure-mapping theory. Prioritize relational similarity over surface similarity.

## HARD-GATE

Cannot exit strategy until ≥80% of each budget line is consumed OR yield targets are met with justification for remaining budget.

## Available Tactics

| Tactic | Role |

|--------|------|

| analogy-extraction | Core tactic — extract and validate structural analogies |

| domain-divergence | Find distant source domains with high structural similarity |

| bridge-validation | Validate mapping depth before transfer |

## Available SOPs

| SOP | Role |

|-----|------|

| domain-scanning | Find candidate source domains |

| abstraction-extraction | Extract abstract relational structure |

| structural-mapping | Map source→target correspondences |

| analogy-quality-assessment | Rate analogy depth (surface/structural/systemic) |

| transfer-adaptation | Adapt transferred principle to target constraints |

| cross-domain-synthesis | Synthesize transfer outputs |

## Execution Guidance

1. **Functionalize target**: Restate target problem in relational terms (not object terms)

2. **Source search**: Use domain-scanning to find domains with similar relational structure

3. **Abstract source**: Extract relational structure from source using abstraction-extraction

4. **Map structure**: Use structural-mapping to align source→target correspondences

5. **Assess depth**: Apply analogy-quality-assessment — only proceed with STRUCTURAL or SYSTEMIC matches

6. **Transfer**: Carry over higher-order relational constraints from source to target

7. **Adapt**: Use transfer-adaptation to fit transferred principles to target constraints

8. **Validate**: Confirm transferred solution respects target domain physics/logic

## Available Tactics

| --- | --- |

| bridge-validation | Validate analogy depth and transfer viability. Ensures only deep structural analogies (not surface-level similarities) proceed to transfer. |

| domain-divergence | Scan and select maximally diverse source domains. Ensures creative search covers genuinely unrelated fields with high transfer potential. |

## Available SOPs

| --- | --- |

| abstraction-extraction | Extract abstract principles from concrete domain cases. Strips domain-specific details to reveal transferable mechanisms. |

| analogy-quality-assessment | Assess analogy depth (surface/structural/systemic). Determines whether an analogy warrants transfer investment. |

| cross-domain-synthesis | Synthesize all cross-domain findings into a structured idea report. Integrates outputs from all strategies and SOPs. |

| structural-mapping | Map source→target structural correspondences. Identifies corresponding, missing, and extra elements between domains. |

| transfer-adaptation | Adapt transferred principle to target problem constraints. Produces concrete adapted solutions from abstract principles. |
