CertBind from Multimodal Connectivity to Certifiable Retrieval Decisions
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.06516v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Lightweight connectors make frozen multimodal encoders composable at the representation level. Deployment exposes a second problem at the level of task decisions. A connected route can expand cross-modal reach while changing an established native retrieval capability. We introduce CertBind, a multiscale theory of certifiable composition for frozen multimodal connector graphs. At the node scale, native anchors establish the exact task identification boundary under the stated chart model. At the edge scale, contract-aware conformal ranks provide
