About the community explorer

The community explorer is developped at ISC-PIF by David Chavalarias and Samuel Castillo. It is based on the TinawebJS software, also developed at ISC-PIF.

About the graphs

- Data are taken from the complex registry directory. This directory is maintained by several complex systems organisations coordinated by the Complex Systems Society.
- The strengh of links between between scholars (when exist) vary according to their shared keywords and reflect the strength of their semantic proximity.
- The strengh of links between keywords (when exist) vary according to the number of scholars that mention them in their profile.
- Scholars that have posted a job offer are highlighted in blue, keywords on which there is a job offer are highlighted in red.

For global community maps (top bar), in order to guaranty that the maps produced reflect complex systems science and complexity science, only terms given by members of the Complex Systems Society (800 people) are displayed and only scholars that share at least one keyword with a CSS member are displayed.
There is no such restriction for the maps of personal networks.
