초록

많은 연구들 가운데 살펴볼 가치가 있는 대상을 찾아 제시해주는 문헌기반 발견의 접근법은 연구자들에게 매우 유용할 것이다. 문헌기반 발견 연구의 대표 이론인 Swanson의 ABC 모델은 기존에 검증되지 않은 개체들의 관계를 연구할 것을 제안해 준다. 본 연구는 Swanson의 ABC 모델에 인용 정보를 고려하여 유의한 관계에 있는 개체들을 더 효율적으로 찾아내고자 하였다. 수집 논문들의 참고문헌 목록에서 인용 정보를 확인하고 논문의 표제와 초록을 대상으로 텍스트 마이닝 기법으로 중요한 단어들을 추출하였다. Swanson의 연구들 중 어유와 레이노드 질병 및 증상의 관계를 재현하였으며 기존의 접근법으로 확인되는 개체들과 어떤 차이가 있는지 분석하였다.

Abstract

It is useful to find something valuable for researching through literature based discovery. Swanson’s ABC model, known as literature based discovery, suggests the relationship between entities undiscovered yet. This study tries to find the valid relationship between entities by referring to citation which connects articles on similar topic. We collect citation from references in articles, and extract important concepts in titles and abstracts through text mining techniques. We reproduce the relationship between fish oil and Raynaud’s disease, which is known as one of Swanson’s works, and compare the results with entities identified from traditional approach.

Abstract

The goal of this paper is to explore the field of Computer and Information Science with the aid of text mining techniques by mining Computer and Information Science related conference data available in DBLP (Digital Bibliography & Library Project). Although studies based on bibliometric analysis are most prevalent in investigating dynamics of a research field, we attempt to understand dynamics of the field by utilizing Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA)-based multinomial topic modeling. For this study, we collect 236,170 documents from 353 conferences related to Computer and Information Science in DBLP. We aim to include conferences in the field of Computer and Information Science as broad as possible. We analyze topic modeling results along with datasets collected over the period of 2000 to 2011 including top authors per topic and top conferences per topic. We identify the following four different patterns in topic trends in the field of computer and information science during this period: growing (network related topics), shrinking (AI and data mining related topics), continuing (web, text mining information retrieval and database related topics), and fluctuating pattern (HCI, information system and multimedia system related topics).
