==<big>About Segregation Wiki</big>==


<big>Segregation Wiki emerged from a comprehensive meta-study on ''The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research''. By examining open-access excerpts from over 10,000 documents in the Scopus database, we identified and mapped 804 distinct forms of segregation (SFs) studied across more than 160 disciplinary fields, dating back to 1913. These SFs were uncovered using a bottom-up methodology, reflecting the diversity of segregation research over the past century.</big>

<big>At its core, Segregation Wiki is organized around a comprehensive '''[https://segregationwiki.cityscience.group/index.php/An_Ontology_of_Segregation ontology of segregation forms]''' — a systematic, bottom-up classification that semantically organizes access to this vast transdisciplinary landscape. This is the first classification of its kind in segregation research. By leveraging network analysis and AI-driven semantic generation, the ontology maps relationships between various forms of segregation as they appear in the literature, grouped under distinct labels or types. You can explore a high-resolution, [https://kimonkrenz.github.io/openseadragon/ zoomable figure] for more detail, or navigate the [https://segregation-ontology.cityscience.group/ interactive ontology], which is currently under development.</big>
