Gershman (16 weighted works; Memory and Neural Mechanisms, Evolutionary Algorithms and Applications). The clearest collaboration lines are Darin D. Dougherty and Thilo Deckersbach (11 shared works, weight 5.6). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 4 PIs, 4 internal connections, weight 4.1, around Cognitive Neuroscience, Social Psychology, Sociology and Political Science, led by Samuel J. Gershman, Mina Cikara, Fiery Cushman.
