A Novel Deep Neural Network-Based Approach to Measure Scholarly Research Dissemination Using Citations Network

Abstract

We investigated the scientific research dissemination by analyzing the publications and citation data, implying that not all citations are significantly important. Therefore, as alluded to existing state-of-the-art models that employ feature-based techniques to measure the scholarly research dissemination between multiple entities, our model implements the convolutional neural network (CNN) with fastText-based pre-trained embedding vectors, utilizes only the citation context as its input to distinguish between important and non-important citations. Moreover, we speculate using focal-loss and class weight methods to address the inherited class imbalance problems in citation classification datasets. Using a dataset of 10 K annotated citation contexts, we achieved an accuracy of 90.7% along with a 90.6% f1-score, in the case of binary classification. Finally, we present a case study to measure the comprehensiveness of our deployed model on a dataset of 3100 K citations taken from the ACL Anthology Reference Corpus. We employed state-of-the-art graph visualization open-source tool Gephi to analyze the various aspects of citation network graphs, for each respective citation behavior.

A Methodological Framework to Predict Future Market Needs for Sustainable Skills Management Using AI and Big Data Technologies

“…By examining the demands of the target employment markets and adapting programmes to match those needs, universities must put greater emphasis on meeting students' expectations. Semantic-based education [18] and analytical applications [19] are critical to academic courses' knowledge representation, modelling the learning outcomes and categorising the professions and the necessary abilities. All may be used for analysis and prediction [20].…”

Improved Link Entropy with Dynamic Community Number Detection for Quantifying Significance of Edges in Complex Social Networks

“…However, efficient flow among a network maintaining global connectivity is a problem beyond simple reachability, where its topology becomes crucial [3]. Quantifying the significance of nodes and edges has been studied in not only a general context [4][5][6], but also a variety of networks from power grids [7,8], communication [9] and wireless sensor networks [10,11] to biological networks [12,13] and co-citation networks in scientific publications [14,15]. Due to its importance, clustering of nodes towards forming communities [16,17] in biological networks has received particular attention, which is also a major issue in social networks [12,18], especially from a political perspective [19,20].…”
