| 7 | {{info}} | ||
| 8 | **Purpose:** This is the single source of truth for: | ||
| 9 | * Requirement-to-phase mapping | ||
| 10 | * Implementation levels (Basic → Enhanced → Complete) | ||
| 11 | * Importance and Urgency prioritization | ||
| 12 | * User Needs fulfillment by phase | ||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | All other documents reference this matrix rather than duplicating information. | ||

| 16 | |||
| 17 | == Phase Definitions == | ||
| 18 | |||
| |
2.1 | 19 | |= Phase |= Goal |= Key Focus |
| 20 | | **POC1** | Prove AI can analyze claims automatically | Core workflow + quality gates + context-aware analysis (experimental) | ||
| 21 | | **POC2** | Improve reliability and robustness | Quality improvements, deduplication | ||
| 22 | | **Beta 0** | User testing with limited audience | Production readiness, user features | ||
| 23 | | **V1.0** | Public production launch | IFCN compliance, search visibility | ||
| 24 | | **V1.1** | First major feature expansion | Advanced capabilities | ||
| 25 | | **V1.5** | Media verification expansion | Image/video/audio verification, archive integration | ||
| 26 | | **V2.0** | Advanced capabilities | Comprehensive toolset | ||
| |
1.1 | 27 | |
| 28 | **Phase Philosophy:** Each phase builds on proven capabilities from previous phases. We validate AI quality before adding production features. | ||
| 29 | |||
| 30 | == Requirement Categories == | ||
| 31 | |||
| 32 | **This matrix covers two types of requirements:** | ||
| 33 | |||
| |
2.1 | 34 | **1. Formal System Requirements (16 requirements: FR4, FR7, FR44-FR54, NFR11-NFR13)** |
| |
1.1 | 35 | |
| |
2.1 | 36 | These are the primary requirements with full specifications in the [[Requirements>>Test.FactHarbor.Specification.Requirements.WebHome]] page. |
| |
1.1 | 37 | |
| |
2.1 | 38 | **2. POC-Specific Requirements (FR1-FR2, FR5-FR6, FR11, FR13, NFR1-NFR3)** |
| |
1.1 | 39 | |
| |
2.1 | 40 | These are detailed in [[POC Requirements>>Test.FactHarbor.Specification.POC.Requirements]] for POC1 implementation but do not have separate formal specification sections. |
| |
1.1 | 41 | |
| 42 | **Mapping:** POC-specific requirements are implementation-level details of formal requirements. For example: | ||
| 43 | * FR1 (Claim Extraction), FR2 (Context), FR3 (Scenarios), FR5 (Evidence Collection), FR6 (Source Quality) → All part of **FR7 (Automated Verdicts)** | ||
| 44 | * FR11 (Audit Trail) → Part of **NFR11 (Quality Assurance)** | ||
| 45 | * NFR1-NFR3 (Explainability, Performance, Transparency) → Addressed in **NFR11 and NFR13** | ||
| 46 | |||
| 47 | {{info}} | ||
| 48 | **For phase planning:** Use the formal requirements (FR4, FR7, FR44-FR54, NFR11-NFR13) as the primary planning units. POC-specific requirements are implementation details within those formal requirements. | ||
| 49 | {{/info}} | ||
| 50 | |||
| |
2.1 | 51 | {{warning}} |
| 52 | **Future Requirement Numbering:** To avoid conflicts with existing requirements (FR1-FR54, NFR1-NFR13, UN-1 to UN-28), new requirements will use: | ||
| 53 | * **FR55-FR84** for future functional requirements | ||
| 54 | * **NFR14-NFR18** for future non-functional requirements | ||
| 55 | * **UN-29 to UN-36** for future user needs | ||
| |
1.1 | 56 | |
| |
2.1 | 57 | See [[Gap Analysis>>Test.FactHarbor.Specification.Requirements.GapAnalysis]] for features not yet assigned formal requirement numbers. |
| 58 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 59 | |||
| |
1.1 | 60 | == Requirements by Phase == |
| 61 | |||
| 62 | **Note:** Requirements are organized by release and sorted by Urgency (HIGH → MEDIUM → LOW), then Importance (CRITICAL → HIGH → MEDIUM → LOW). | ||
| 63 | |||
| 64 | {{info}} | ||
| 65 | **Formal vs POC-Specific:** 16 requirements have formal Importance/Urgency prioritization (FR4, FR7, FR44-FR54, NFR11-NFR13). POC-specific requirements (FR1-FR2, FR5-FR6, FR11, FR13, NFR1-NFR3) are implementation details within formal requirements and marked as "(POC-specific)". | ||
| 66 | {{/info}} | ||
| 67 | |||
| 68 | === POC1 === | ||
| 69 | |||
| 70 | **Goal:** Prove that AI can extract claims and determine verdicts automatically | ||

| |
2.1 | 78 | | **FR4** | Analysis Summary (Enhanced with Context-Aware Analysis) | HIGH | HIGH | Enhanced in POC1 to test context-aware analysis (experimental feature). If successful (≥70% accuracy), ships in POC2. See [[Article Verdict Problem>>Test.FactHarbor.Specification.POC.Article-Verdict-Problem]] |
| 79 | | **FR1** | Claim Extraction | (POC-specific) | (POC-specific) | Part of FR7 implementation | ||
| 80 | | **FR2** | Claim Context | (POC-specific) | (POC-specific) | Part of FR7 implementation | ||

| 84 | | **NFR2** | Performance | (POC-specific) | (POC-specific) | Basic implementation | ||
| 85 | | **NFR3** | Transparency | (POC-specific) | (POC-specific) | Basic implementation | ||
| |
1.1 | 86 | |
| |
2.1 | 87 | **Context-Aware Analysis Details:** |
| 88 | * **Approach:** Single-Pass Holistic Analysis (Approach 1) | ||
| 89 | * **Implementation:** Enhanced AI prompt to evaluate logical structure | ||
| 90 | * **Testing:** 30-article test set (10 straightforward, 10 misleading, 10 complex) | ||
| 91 | * **Success Criteria:** ≥70% accuracy detecting misleading articles | ||
| 92 | * **Decision Path:** If ≥70% → ship in POC2; if 50-70% → try weighted aggregation; if <50% → defer | ||
| 93 | * **Cost:** Zero increase (no additional API calls, no architecture changes) | ||
