Memory distributed throughout the brain

Lashley's finding that memory is not localized but encoded globally; cited as an example of wholeness in neurophysiology.

Neighborhood — ranked by edge-count

Wholeness
associated_with
Alexander's core concept rejecting the idea that a whole consists of parts; instead, a whole makes its parts (called 'centers').

cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
