Guidelines
The Neural Map is a novel and simplified representation of the Cognitive Signature, inspired by neural network connectivity but tailored for human cognition. It visualizes talent as an interconnected web of traits and attributes, forming a dynamic "map" that adapts based on real-time data from assessments.
The map does not rank individuals but instead provides a unique profile, emphasizing the connections, balance, and intensity of their cognitive and emotional traits.
Core Visualization Elements
Central Hub (Identity Core):
The core node represents the individual's central cognitive identity.
All traits radiate outward from this hub, maintaining connectivity while preserving individuality.
Nodes (Cognitive Traits):
Each node represents a specific cognitive trait (e.g., adaptability, creativity, analytical thinking).
Node size reflects the trait's strength or activation.
Node color represents the trait category:
Blue: Analytical and technical skills.
Green: Emotional intelligence and social traits.
Orange: Creative and adaptive abilities.
Connections (Trait Interdependencies):
Lines between nodes represent the relationships and interplay between traits.
The thickness of a line indicates the strength of the connection.
Dotted lines suggest potential or underdeveloped relationships.
Zones (Trait Clusters):
Nodes are grouped into zones around the central hub, representing cognitive domains:
Inner Zone: Foundational traits like integrity and attention to detail.
Middle Zone: Behavioral and emotional traits such as adaptability and collaboration.
Outer Zone: Growth-oriented traits like creativity and leadership.
Pulsing Dynamics (Real-Time Adaptation):
Nodes and connections pulsate dynamically based on data input, showing the current state of traits in action.
Brightness and pulse frequency highlight active traits, while dim nodes indicate dormant or less utilized traits.
Key Scientific Features
Node-Based Representation:
Traits are represented as nodes in a graph, mathematically defined as G=(V,E)G = (V, E)G=(V,E), where:
VVV: Set of nodes (traits).
EEE: Set of edges (trait interdependencies).
Edge Weights and Dynamics:
Edge weights wijw_{ij}wij represent the strength of the relationship between traits iii and jjj, derived from latent embeddings: wij=cos(Zi,Zj),Zi,Zj∈Rnw_{ij} = \cos(Z_i, Z_j), \quad Z_i, Z_j \in \mathbb{R}^nwij=cos(Zi,Zj),Zi,Zj∈Rn
Clustering Coefficients:
Nodes in the same cluster share a high clustering coefficient CCC, reflecting tightly interlinked domains: C=2⋅Number of Connected EdgesTotal Possible EdgesC = \frac{2 \cdot \text{Number of Connected Edges}}{\text{Total Possible Edges}}C=Total Possible Edges2⋅Number of Connected Edges
Growth Pathways:
Dotted connections between unlinked nodes suggest growth pathways, areas where traits can be developed further based on proximity or relevance.
How It Works
Trait Mapping:
Linguistic and behavioral data are processed to calculate trait intensities (node sizes) and interdependencies (edge weights).
Dynamic Clustering:
Traits naturally cluster into zones, creating a cohesive "map" of talent.
Temporal Evolution:
Real-time updates morph the Neural Map, showing how traits develop or shift over time.
Example: Neural Map of a Creative Leader
Core Traits:
Large, bright nodes for Creativity and Adaptability, pulsating actively.
Strong connections to Problem-Solving and Emotional Intelligence nodes.
Zones:
Inner Zone: Integrity and Self-Assurance.
Middle Zone: Collaboration and Empathy.
Outer Zone: Visionary Thinking and Strategic Planning.
Growth Pathways:
Dotted line between Technical Proficiency and Leadership, suggesting potential for skill enhancement in technical leadership.
