You can separate words using commas to build more advanced queries. E.g. \u201cwind, power\u201d<\/li>\n

- Number of connections<\/strong>: The network can be adjusted to show between 10 and 4000 connections. A low number of connections highlights the strongest links between organisations only. A higher number allows you to have a more extensive view of the network.<\/li>\n
- Contrast between connections<\/strong>: Most of the times the best setting is “0”. This means that the different network layers selected will be combined linearly. If you prefer to focus only on the connections found in the strongest layers, and cut connections from weaker layers, then you con experiment increasing the value of this setting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Relational closeness

This section controls the network layer that connects organisations based on their previous relational connections. This includes relationships based on personal contacts (named here as social) and based on shared projects (i.e. a connection will exist between two organisations if they participate in one or more projects together).<\/p>\n- \n
- Social<\/strong>: Please select a value between 0 and 1 that reflects the relative weight that you want to assign to connections based on personal contacts.<\/li>\n
- Shared project<\/strong>:\u00a0Please select a value between 0 and 1 that reflects the relative weight that you want to assign to connections based on previous participation in projects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

This section controls the network layer that connects organisations based on their technological similarity. This includes sector-based similarity (organisations that work in one or more of the same sectors) and technological closeness based on similarities in their text descriptions (based on their public profiles).<\/p>\n- \n
- Sectors<\/strong>:\u00a0Please select a value between 0 and 1 that reflects the relative weight that you want to assign to connections based on shared technology\/industrial sectors.<\/li>\n
- Descriptions<\/strong>:\u00a0Please select a value between 0 and 1 that reflects the relative weight that you want to assign to connections based on similarities between the public profiles (text descriptions) of the organisations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
