Location quotient against the world baseline. Inside a single field a city is a meaningful unit, which is why this is where a city is measured at all.

By fractional works in 2022–2025, weighted toward what it does more of than the world: Epidemiology, Deep Learning, Nanoelectronics, Semiconductor Devices, Atomic Layer Deposition, High-k Dielectrics, Machine Learning and Inflammation.
