What is the ZYX axis? ——Cross-dimensional analysis from three-dimensional space to hot topics
In the three-dimensional coordinate system,ZYX axisRepresent the three vertical directions in space: the Z-axis usually refers to the vertical direction (height), the Y-axis refers to the longitudinal direction (depth), and the X-axis refers to the horizontal direction (width). However, this concept has recently been extended as a structured analysis framework for multidimensional data. This article will combine the hot topics of the entire network in the past 10 days, use the "ZYX axis" model to break down hot topics, and provide structured data.
1. Core definition of ZYX axis

| Dimensions | traditional meaning | Extended meaning of hot spot analysis |
|---|---|---|
| Z axis | vertical direction (height) | Vertical depth of the topic (such as social impact, historical background) |
| Y axis | Longitudinal (depth) | The time span of the topic (such as duration, evolution process) |
| X-axis | Horizontal (width) | Breadth of topic coverage (such as participant groups, geographical distribution) |
2. ZYX axis analysis of hot spots across the entire network in the past 10 days
The following are the hot topics from October 1 to October 10, 2023, classified by ZYX axis model:
| hot events | Z axis (depth) | Y axis (time) | X-axis (breadth) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nobel Prize announced | Controversy over the social value of scientific breakthroughs | Lasts for 3 days, with daily prizes released | Global media coverage and participation of scientists from many countries |
| A celebrity’s divorce | The hidden influence of the entertainment industry capital chain | Fermentation within 48 hours | Weibo reading volume exceeds 1 billion, 20+ brand associations |
| AI chip technology breakthrough | Changes in the Sino-US technology competition landscape | Industry discussions continue throughout the week | Covering technology, finance, and policy fields |
3. Application value of ZYX axis model
Through ZYX axis structured analysis, hot spots can be quickly determined:
1.level of influence(Z-axis): Whether it touches the deep-seated contradictions in society;
2.life cycle(Y-axis): short-term explosion or long-term evolution;
3.communication efficiency(X-axis): Cross-circle penetration ability.
4. Typical case: ZYX axis analysis of Nobel Prize
| Dimensions | Data performance |
|---|---|
| Z axis | Medical award results may reduce cancer mortality by 30% |
| Y axis | The peak popularity lasts for 72 hours, and then transitions to the professional field. |
| X-axis | Reported by media in 120+ countries around the world, with over 50,000 articles of popular science content |
Conclusion
The ZYX axis is not only a spatial coordinate, but also a powerful tool for analyzing complex information. Next time you encounter a hotspot, you might as well try using the Z-axis to dig depth, the Y-axis to see the period, and the X-axis to measure the range. You may make new discoveries.
