• Ankara (place) gravity 0.0020 · momentum -0.014 · Q3640

Signals

• edge_weight_recent 201.8
• edge_weight_prior 2.7
• factor 74.74
• event_count_recent 364
• window_days 30

Confidence (67%) is computed numerically from these signals. The sentence prose was written by an LLM given only the structured signals as input, the LLM never sees or chooses the confidence number.

What would change our mind

Edge weight between Europe and Ankara returns to its 30-day baseline, or two clean weeks pass with no fresh co-mention from a tier-1 source.

Inversion conditions are a property of the pattern detector, not the LLM. Watch for this signal move and the claim should weaken or be superseded.
