365D AFFINITY SCORE METHODOLOGY

Score scale ranges from -10.00 (intense conflict, hostilities, sanctions) to +10.00 (formal strategic alliance, treaty integration). Baseline neutral is 0.00. Scores represent a weighted non-linear composite index balanced across 3 primary data vectors: 1) GDELT GKG v2.0 high-frequency news tone & event sentiment (40% weight - captures immediate 365-day media baseline), 2) UN General Assembly (UNGA) roll-call voting correlation matrices (35% weight - captures structural geopolitical & diplomatic alignment), and 3) UN Comtrade bilateral commodity trade volume & interdependence (25% weight - captures economic integration). A score of +2.00 reflects routine baseline alignment, while +4.00+ signifies high strategic cohesion.

30D TRAJECTORY DELTA METHODOLOGY

Measures short-term percentage shift in bilateral sentiment over the last 30 days relative to the 365-day moving average baseline. Positive percentages (▲ +%) signify accelerating convergence or improving diplomatic tone. Negative percentages (▼ -%) indicate growing structural friction or cooling relation. Derived from high-frequency GDELT 30-day news tone telemetry.
