Comparable time series
Rates per observed headline
Raw counts are not compared across weeks because snapshot sizes can differ. This table uses only curated-public-metadata-pilot with sampling mode curated-demonstration.
| Date | Headlines | Gain | Loss | Uncertainty | Certainty | Salience | Source diversity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-08-19 | 6 | 0.33 | 0.33 | 0.50 | 0.17 | 0.50 | 0.83 |
Method
Trend direction uses the whole comparable series.
Once 3 comparable snapshots exist, direction is based on the ordinary least squares slope across chronological snapshot rates, not just the first and last week.
