Skill VMS & Dual-Vector Scoring Methodology
Mathematical FrameworkMathematical Derivation & Dynamic Factor Weighting
Master Skill VMS Formula (0 - 1,000 pts Scale):
Skill VMS = 250 V_Demand + 200 G_Learning + 150 D_Ecosystem + 150 A_Adoption + 100 P_Persistence + 100 N_Novelty + 50 C_JobCoverage
Employer Demand Score (0 - 100 Scale):
Demand Score = 0.65 V_Demand + 0.35 A_Adoption
Measures real corporate job posting requirements + enterprise SDK workflow adoption.
Learning Intent Score (0 - 100 Scale):
Learning Score = 0.60 G_Learning + 0.40 D_Ecosystem
Measures search Z-scores, course enrollments, and multi-platform dispersion entropy.
8 Dynamic Lifecycle Stages:
Emerging → Attention Rising → Adoption Accelerating → True Breakout → Mainstream → Core → Declining → ⚠️ Hype Gap.
Anti-Gaming Shield (C_shield):
If C_shield < 50.0, visual warning badge (⚠️ Risk) is attached and rank capped at #50.
