Latent Semantic Analysis Applied to Tech Mining

چکیده
This paper presents an approach to bibliometric analysis in the context of technology mining. Bibliometric analysis refers to the use of publication database statistics, e.g., hit counts relevant to a topic of interest. Technology mining facilitates the identification of a technology’s research landscape. Our contribution to bibliometrics in this context is the use of a technique known as Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) to reveal the concepts that underlie the terms relevant to a field. Using this technique, we can analyze coherent concepts, rather than individual terms. This can lead to more useful results from our bibliometric analysis. We present results that demonstrate the ability of Latent Semantic Analysis to uncover the concepts underlying sets of key terms, used in a case study on the technologies of renewable energy.

The purpose of this study is to examine different formats of comment data to predict student performance. Having students write comment data after every lesson can reflect students’ learning attitudes, tendencies and learning activities involved with the lesson. In this research, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (pLSA) are employed to predict student ...
متن کاملCombining Web-Based Searching with Latent Semantic Analysis to Discover Similarity Between Phrases
Determining semantic similarity between words, concepts and phrases is important in many areas within Artificial Intelligence. This includes the general areas of information retrieval, data mining, and natural language processing. Existing approaches have primarily focused on noun to noun synonym comparison. We propose a new technique for the comparison of general expressions that combines web ...
متن کاملUsing Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis to Identify Web User Segments
Web usage mining techniques are often used to identify user access patterns. However, to understand the factors that lead to common navigational patterns, it is necessary to develop techniques that can automatically characterize the underlying tasks and to map these tasks to user segments. Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) has been successfully applied in a variety of applications such as informat...
