CT-SAFR: Safe and Interpretable Chain-of-Thought Reasoning for Autonomous Robots: A Multi-Layered Verification Framework for Trustworthy AI-Driven Robotic Decision Making

CT‑SAFR is a multi‑layered verification framework designed to enhance the safety and faithfulness of Chain‑of‑Thought reasoning in autonomous robots. The framework achieves a 94.2% hallucination detection rate with sub‑500 ms latency, and a warehouse robot case study shows an 87% reduction in unsafe reasoning outputs. The study also offers recommendations for responsible deployment of reasoning‑capable autonomous robots.

CoreSense: Traceable Failure Recall and Conflict-Aware Belief Gating for Auditable Robot Decisions

CoreSense is a robot‑system integration architecture that traces episodic evidence and uses a conflict‑aware belief gate to decide whether to proceed, re‑observe, abstain, or escalates. The gate evaluates scope, provenance, time, contradiction, and support before making a recommendation. Evaluation on public robot datasets, simulations, and a live cloud deployment shows that belief gating can eliminate protocol‑defined unsafe proceeds while maintaining auditability.

Towards Trustworthy Autonomous Robots: An Explainable AI-Based Decision Framework

The paper introduces TRACE, a Transparent Reasoning Architecture for Credible Execution, which provides an explainable AI-based decision framework for autonomous robots. TRACE structures decision-making into four auditable layers—Semantic Perception, Belief Reasoning, Action Synthesis, and Execution Verification—to ensure every action can be traced back to sensor evidence through documented causal chains. Experimental results on warehouse robot navigation show high evidence traceability (98.6%), temporal continuity (99.0%), and decision reconstructability (98.1%) across 500 simulated decision cycles.
