Semantic-Guided Tokenization Framework

Traditional tokenizers suffer from semantic blindness - they make decisions based purely on statistical frequency without understanding the linguistic or domain-specific significance of text segments. GENESIS introduces the first implementation of semantic-aware tokenization.
