decisionpaths: Construct and Audit Longitudinal Decision Paths
Tools for constructing and auditing longitudinal decision paths
from panel data. Implements a decision infrastructure framework for
representing institutional AI systems as generators of time-ordered binary
decision sequences. Provides functions to build path objects from panel
data, summarise per-unit descriptors (dosage, switching rate, onset,
duration, longest run), compute the Decision Reliability Index (DRI)
following Cronbach (1951) <doi:10.1007/BF02310555>, estimate Shannon
decision-path entropy following Shannon (1948)
<doi:10.1002/j.1538-7305.1948.tb01338.x>, classify systems by
infrastructure type (static, periodic, continuous, human-in-the-loop),
and evaluate subgroup disparities in decision exposure and stability.
Applications include education, policy, health, and organisational research.
