Executive Intelligence Synthesis: From Raw Meta-Cognitive Signals to Strategic Decision Support in MARIA OS

How MARIA OS converts low-level meta-cognitive telemetry into executive decision support through information-theoretic compression, relevance filtering, and narrative synthesis

Modern MARIA OS deployments generate tens of thousands of meta-cognitive signals per day, including bias scores, calibration errors, confidence distributions, blind-spot indices, cross-domain insight metrics, and organizational learning rates. Raw dashboards overwhelm executive decision workflows even when the underlying signals contain high-value risk and opportunity patterns. This paper addresses that signal-to-strategy gap by framing executive summarization as a rate-distortion problem: maximize compression while preserving actionable anomalies. We introduce a five-stage synthesis pipeline (hierarchical aggregation, relevance filtering, anomaly surfacing, narrative generation, and latency-accuracy balancing) and evaluate it across 14 MARIA OS deployments. Results show 97.3% information-load reduction with 94.1% anomaly preservation, alongside 2.7x faster and 31% more accurate governance decisions than raw-dashboard workflows.
