Explorers and exploiters in the knowledge space. a. Comparison of the radius of gyration \(R_{g}^{2}\), with the center of mass computed from the 2 most visited locations, with the full radius of gyration \(R_{g}\) (see Methods). We find a dichotomy between exploiters (orange) and explorers (blue), using the bisector method to classify them [25]. b. Distribution of \(S_{2} = R_{g}^{2} / R_{g}\), further highlighting the dichotomy as a bimodality of exploiters (close to 1) and explorers (close to 0). c. Comparison of the mean squared displacement as a function of time since the first article for explorers and exploiters
