CD_t Workbench | Bibliometric Inflation Analyzer

empirical Simulator
Citation Network Topology (120 Papers)
Focal Paper Cohort: 1985
Breakthrough Presets:
Disruptive Node (Consolidates $CD_t > 0$)
Consolidating Node ($CD_t < 0$)
Focal Discovery Node ($I_t$)
Decadal Disruption Drift: Raw vs. Field-Normalized $CD_t$ Analysis Ready

Demonstrating how mechanical citation inflation creates an artificial decay signal in raw bibliometrics.

Diagnostic Log & Export
[SYSTEM INITIALIZED] Field: Biomedical Sciences Papers Modeled: 120 Raw CD Index: 0.120 Normalized CD Index: 0.480 Bias Distortion: Reference List Expansion (+180% since 1980) Primary Driver: Subfield specialization and reference list expansion displace focal paper citations without decreasing underlying conceptual disruption.
