Decomposition ratio

Each rule is decomposed into an average of 3.9 atomic obligations — the smallest testable units that can be independently violated.

Fully extracted & scored

All 62 obligations have been decomposed, titled, risk-scored, and embedded for semantic matching.

Risk scoring

Every obligation in NIST AI RMF 1.0 is scored across independent risk dimensions:

Obligation Weight

How critical within the regulatory framework

Violation Likelihood

How often breached in practice

Enforcement Evidence

Regulator enforcement history and penalties

Cascade Dependency

How many obligations depend on this one
