  The canonical, authoritative archive for the Core Emotion Framework (CEF),
  containing conceptual, computational, technical, practitioner, and lexicon layers.
  This repository serves as the long-term scholarly root for all CEF publications.
---
The Core Emotion Framework defines exactly ten operators:

1. Sensing
2. Calculating
3. Deciding
4. Expanding
5. Constricting
6. Achieving
7. Arranging
8. Appreciating
9. Boosting
10. Accepting

This is the complete and authoritative operator set.

# ** Dataset Card: CoreEmotionFramework / CEF_Main_Archive**

## **Dataset Summary**
The **Core Emotion Framework (CEF) Main Archive** is the canonical, authoritative repository containing the complete conceptual, computational, technical, practitioner, and lexicon layers of the CEF ecosystem.  
It serves as the long‑term scholarly root for all CEF publications, specifications, emotional‑technology protocols, and future expansions.

This archive is designed for researchers, developers, practitioners, and institutions seeking a unified, stable, citable source of truth for the CEF.

---

## **Repository Structure**
The archive is organized into seven canonical layers:

### **1. Canonical Identity Layer**
Foundational documents defining the conceptual and architectural identity of the CEF.
- `Bulgaria-2026-Technical-Architecture.pdf`
- `CEF-emotional-structure-tree.png`
- `CEF_Canonical_Docs.zip`

### **2. Canonical Bundles (1–4)**
Modular, versioned bundles representing the core architecture.
- `CEF_Bundle1_CanonOverview.zip`
- `CEF_Bundle2_ComputationalArchitecture.zip`
- `CEF_Bundle3_EL1_Lexicon.zip`
- `CEF_Bundle4_Unified_Architecture.zip`

### **3. Technical Specification Layer**
Formal computational definitions and system rules.
- `CEF_Technical_Specifications.zip`

### **4. Practitioner & Applied Layer**
Operational manuals, therapeutic modules, and applied emotional‑technology workflows.
- `CEF_Practitioner_Manuals.zip`
- `CEF_Therapy.zip`
- `CEF_Cycling.pdf`

### **5. Lexicon Layer**
Machine‑readable and human‑readable emotional lexicons.
- `EL1_v1.0.json`
- `EL_V1.pdf`

### **6. Public Identity & Onboarding Layer**
Public‑facing introduction to the CEF ecosystem.
- `Optimize Your Capabilities.pdf`

### **7. Repository Metadata**
- `README.md`
- `.gitattributes`
