Etymology: Network Analysis (Freeman, 1977)
PRIMARY DEFINITION
A measure of a node's centrality in a network equal to the number of shortest paths from all vertices to all others that pass through that node.
Relational Analysis & Epistemic Context
In the Megalodon knowledge graph, nodes with high betweenness centrality act as master epistemic bottlenecks—understanding these gateway nodes unlocks rapid comprehension across multiple disciplines.
