cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edgeEntities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
- Another term for a structure-preserving transformation, one which preserves structure and wholeness without abrupt disruption.
- The method of achieving group consensus on complex designs by resolving a sequence of very small, particular questions one at a time.
- A transformation that removes unwanted centers and unnecessary complexity throughout the structure, leaving only essential centers.
- A transformation that develops a thick boundary zone around a zone to intensify its coherence.
- A transformation that introduces intermediate-sized centers to fill out the hierarchy of scales, strengthening larger centers.
- A transformation that sharpens and increases the distinction between two types of centers, creating stronger polarity.
