The strength of a synapseA synapse's strength is not determined by a single number. It's the product of three dimensions:Layers. On how many of the ten layers does this connection appear? Peter Ros appears on eight of nine. A stranger mentioned once in a blog post appears on one.Frequency. How often does the connection appear per layer? Peter Ros: 10 meetings (Layer 1), 41 transactions (Layer 3), 153 photo-days (Layer 5), 92 text mentions (Layer 6). That is a very strong synapse. One text mention from an unknown name is weak.Completeness. How full is each record? "Peter Ros, meeting" is thinner than "Peter Ros, meeting on March 17, 2026 in The Hague about DFA." Same layer. But the second has date, location, and subject. That is completeness — the quality of the evidence, not just the quantity.Synapse strength = layers × frequency × completeness.
synapse strength (ie link weight / layers of meaning even?): how many of the 10 evidence aspects covered, how often, how complete is each of the records in each aspect. Not mentioned how this is expressed back into /logged in the data (or reconstructed every time like human memory?)
