How the score was computed

rank-2026-10-18

Score████░░░░░░4.2

Score = 10 × (50% × adjusted merit / 10 + 25% × attention + 25% × freshness)

Desks place stronger verdicts first, then use this score to order work within the same verdict.

Merit: 3.4 / 10; Weighted rubric, evidence-gated.
Adjusted merit: 3.8 / 10; Shrunk toward the desk prior by editor confidence (30%).
Attention: 28%; Citations, upvotes, points, mentions.
Freshness: 66%; Half-life decay since publication.

No attention signals recorded yet.
