Preprint.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
We detail scalable methods for approximating the quadratic entropy $p^T d p$ for arbitrary distributions $p$ and common distances $d$ of negative type. We focus on the Euclidean and spherical geodesic cases, which both use random feature embeddings and projections to dramatically improve computational complexity within a simple framework. Amortization of a single large matrix multiplication and control variates further enable computation at large scale with low memory and runtime in situations where $d$ is held constant while $p$ varies. We demonstrate this with a comparison against direct pair sampling and bibliometric/scientometric examples on Open Graph Benchmark datasets, revealing papers, fields, and institutions with both particularly narrow and broad interdisciplinary reach from their citations and text features alone.
