Linkage

Official Korean agency source + concept alignment (no explicit citation recorded)

Multilingual semantic similarity

cosine similarity (method detail)0.752

Computed with intfloat/multilingual-e5-small multilingual embeddings. Display score is a calibrated mapping of the raw cross-lingual cosine (0.752); higher means closer meaning. Reflects semantic similarity, not proof of causation.

•Parallel domestic policy development is possible.
•Industry or market pressure may have driven similar language.
•A common external shock (e.g., financial crisis, pandemic) could explain parallel adoption.

Curated

Global purpose, Korean purpose, and precursor stages. Reasoning echo is discourse observation — not proof of coordination.

Global purpose

Prevent ship-source pollution of the marine environment through MARPOL annexes mirrored in domestic ship safety and environment law.

Korean purpose

「선박안전법」(1986년 제정, 2024년 개정)은 선박의 감항성 유지, 안전 운항, 해양오염 방지를 위한 선박 구조·설비·검사 기준을 규정한다. 동법은 MARPOL 협약의 국내 이행을 위하여 선박으로부터의 기름·유해물질 배출 방지 설비, 오수·쓰레기 처리 설비, 대기오염 방지 설비(SOx 스크러버, NOx 저감 장치 등)의 설치·검사 의무를 부과한다.

Score Guide

Confidence — Editorial A–D tier from semantic, temporal, and linkage evidence.

Echo Strength — Metadata completeness score. Rewards verified sources, paired links, explicit dates, keyword diversity, and origin tags.

Vocabulary Overlap — Heuristic score measuring shared tokens between global and Korean texts. Reflects loanwords and repeated terms, not meaning across languages.
