At the center is the Fast Ability Transform — a fast exact inverse of a correlated Thurstonian race (shares → abilities), the enabling object with no published predecessor. Tail-sensitive Black–Litterman is its headline application. Each node is a paper (or a core concept); colors are literatures; solid edges are real connections; dashed red edges are connections that do not yet exist — the white space, i.e. the research agenda. The application sits at the intersection of three populated axes — reverse optimization, a lower-tail co-movement view, and a fast exact inverse of a correlated race — whose pairwise edges all exist but whose triple does not. Click a node to open the reference; drag to rearrange; hover for the one-line story.
Compiled from two literature sweeps (BL tail/non-normal extensions; reverse optimization & implied dependence views). Some venues are provisional pending verification. See also the interactive demo.
