...and 199 more
Orphaned Nodes Analysis
Orphaned nodes are completely disconnected concepts with no inbound AND no outbound edges. These indicate a quality problem — every concept should connect to the graph.
- Total Orphaned Nodes: 0
✅ No orphaned nodes detected. All concepts are connected to the graph.
Connected Components
- Number of Connected Components: 1
✅ All concepts are connected in a single graph.
