Introduction. We present a new bibliometric indicator to measure journal specialisation over time, named the focus factor. This new indicator is based on bibliographic coupling and counts the percentage of re-citations given in subsequent years. Method. The applicability of the new indicator is demonstrated on a selection of general science journals and on a selection of medical journals. The r...

Scholia is a tool to handle scientific bibliographic information through Wikidata. The Scholia Web service creates on-the-fly scholarly profiles for researchers, organizations, journals, publishers, individual scholarly works, and for research topics. To collect the data, it queries the SPARQL-based Wikidata Query Service. Among several display formats available in Scholia are lists of publicat...

We have conducted a descriptive analysis that presents annual publication citation trend, collaboration pattern, most influential articles, ...

The paper introduces a new journal impact measure called The Reference Return Ratio (3R). Unlike the traditional Journal Impact Factor (JIF), which is based on calculations of publications and citations, the new measure is based on calculations of bibliographic investments (references) and returns (citations). A comparative study of the two measures shows a strong relationship between the 3R an...

We consider the problem of finding communities in large linked networks such as web structures or citation networks. We review similarity measures for linked objects and discuss the k-Means and EM algorithms, based on text similarity, bibliographic coupling, and co-citation strength. We study the utilization of the principle of multi-view learning to combine these similarity measures. We explor...

Experiments were performed on a remote, multiple access computer to retrieve bibliographic items based on citation data. The citations were from some 25,000 physics papers. Estimates were made o f the relevance of bibliographies derived from such citations. Some extrapolations are made to future systems with remote multiple access capability.

Abstract Given the increased risks of water crises faced by several countries, environmental education emerges as an instrument to help finding solutions water-related issues, along with local communities and different sectors society. However, studies have indicated methodological vulnerability programs/projects focused on resources management. Thus, current study developed System for Evaluati...

This paper introduces a novel approach for large-scale unsupervised segmentation of bibliographic elements. Our problem is to segment a word token sequence representing a citation into subsequences each corresponding to a different bibliographic element, e.g. authors, paper title, journal name, publication year, etc. Obviously, each bibliographic element should be represented by contiguous word...

Introduction This chapter presents a critical review of the theories that have formed and/or continue to form the basic assumptions underlying citation analysis. Unless stated otherwise, the term citation is used synonymously with the term bibliographic reference. Citation analysis is consequently taken to represent the analysis of bibliographic references, which form part of the apparatus of s...
