I think one should do a network of nodes that all have computed distances to every other and the one with the longest sum of distances is the most isolated, so, most original! So it is some sort of topology algorithm? Maybe it already exists in some form. Most distant node to everything else? Easter Island? But an expensive algorithm, yes, in this unoptimized form. Anyway, you got me thinking, it is all good. I can start coding some stuff even now, that just compares very simple units. A weighted sum of such comparison can then be put together and the comparison can begin. See? I know some way. And I know some day :) -- underground experts united https://dataswamp.org/~incal
