1931 Subjects (Controlled) Subjects with no co-occurrence are 11 more units distant than subjects with 1 co-occurrence. Distance Range = 1 to 67
Standard I Most Want • Replicablity and comparability in the spatial context. • Will there ever be a meaningful absolute measure of distance that quantifiably captures similarity/relatedness across topics? Or will this always be relative? • For instance will it ever be possible to say that magnetic resonance imaging is 4 units away from x-ray crystallography, in an absolute (ratio or interval) sense.
Standard I Most Want • Two items are 4 units apart: • 15 % of all citations for a particular grouping are related to another particular grouping by 4 degrees of separation.
