Abstract
This paper presents a novel method for mining Wikipedia to uncover implicit interdisciplinary knowledge, mapping the relationships and interactions between different disciplines (art, science, literature). Using complex network formalism, the study characterizes individual and collective behavior within and between disciplines. The results align with established interdisciplinary knowledge, demonstrating the method's potential for quantitative research and revealing implicit connections between seemingly disparate fields.
