Node & Network Details

How is this calculated?

The math continuously tracks how strongly this post is connected to the rest of the network. Every tag forms a 2-way link. The base stats determine personal node strength, and the pie charts below show this node's share against its direct neighbours.

// 1. Base variables (floored at 1 to prevent zero-multiplication math errors)
$inbound = max(1, 3) = 3
$outbound = max(1, 3) = 3

// 2. Node Base Values (Local connection strength)
Base_Strength (PV) = $inbound * $outbound = 3 * 3 = 9
Base_Influence (IV) = $inbound / $outbound = 3 / 3 = 1

// 3. Exponential Network Values (accumulating 7 direct neighbours)
Network_Strength (CV) = Base_PV * (Neighbour_1_PV * Neighbour_2_PV * ...)
                         = 9 *
                           ( 10 [Ghana] *
                            9 [Gambia] *
                            1 [kora] *
                            16 [West Africa] *
                            4 [Afrobeat] *
                            121 [Fela Kuti] *
                            81 [Niger]
                           )

                         = 508.08M

Network_Influence (TV) = Base_IV * (Neighbour_1_IV * Neighbour_2_IV * ...)
                         = 1 *
                           ( 2.5 [Ghana] *
                            1 [Gambia] *
                            1 [kora] *
                            1 [West Africa] *
                            1 [Afrobeat] *
                            1 [Fela Kuti] *
                            1 [Niger]
                           )

                         = 2.5
