“…Analyses of category or keyword co-occurrence networks can offer a more rigorous and reliable representation of the literature on major topics of a domain (Chen et al, 2014a,b;Shi and Liu, 2019). Each publication in the WoS is assigned one or more subject categories and a number of keywords.…”

“…Based on their interconnectivity, these nodes can be aggregated into clusters that represent thematic concentrations. A cluster is a group of tightly coupled references that form the intellectual base of a research field, and articles citing these references represent the research front of that field (Chen et al, 2014a,b;Shi and Liu, 2019). The seven largest clusters numbered from 0 to 6 are shown in Figure 6.…”

Place Identity: How Far Have We Come in Exploring Its Meanings?

In order to synthesize the extensively studied place identities and their meanings, this paper reviews how researchers have conceived and deconstructed place identity. CiteSpace, a scientometric tool for visualizing and analyzing trends and patterns in scientific literature, is used to identify the active topics and new developments of publications in place identity. The data set input into CiteSpace consists of 1,011 bibliographic records retrieved from the core database of Web of Science with a title search of the articles published between 1985 and July 2019. The scientometric review reveals the extensive applications of place identity in various topics. Studies in this field experienced an active exploration in plural disciplines after 2000, and the hot area gradually concentrated on the discipline of humanities and social sciences after 2010 and shifted toward place marketing until now. A network of co-cited references identified seven dominant research clusters, of which the research on the influence of place identity on social actors' attitudes and behaviors is most prominent and the research on the effects of physical environment change on place identity captures the latest emerging area. Versatile meanings of place identity are witnessed in different clusters and articles of a cluster. These meanings are intertwined in shaping the knowledge base of thematic concentrations. To supplement the scientometric analysis, a deep survey on measuring methods and roles of place identity in the contents of academic articles was done to trace knowledge connections between different empirical understandings of place identity. Finally, this paper summarizes the meanings of place identity in four dimensions and in turn offers some suggestions for further research directions.

“…Besides searching for academic literature, sometimes grey literature including government papers, and documents from professional associations and enterprises have been part of the investigation, too [25]. Among review articles, bibliometric studies [18,19,22,23,26] applying different techniques for data analysing (e.g., co-citations, co-authorship, co-occurrence of terms, etc.,) are often recognized. Some of these techniques are also applied in the presented paper, while in contrast to previous literature reviews, the focus of this study is on the potential of open space.…”

For a city to perform successfully, and its citizens to feel safe and comfortable, the health of basic urban components and the overall resilience of the urban system is crucial. As the importance of the resilient urban system has been recognized in the scientific literature, many studies have been done on this topic. Therefore, to find out the gaps in the existing literature and the opportunities for further research, a new systematic literature review has been performed in three stages. Different bibliographic techniques (co-occurrence and co-citation analysis) have been applied and, in the final stage of the analysis, an in-depth study of the content of the selected papers addressing open space in relation to urban seismic resilience has been carried out. The obtained results and trends have shown a lack of research on the potential of open space for enhancing urban seismic resilience, as well as a challenge for its quantitative assessment. The ability of the affected resilient system is to achieve at least a pre-disaster performance level in an acceptable time, which can be gained, among others, by using the restorative potential of open space. Based on the synthesis of these findings the authors' draft model of an urban system integrating the potential of open space is presented in terms of a complex network theory.

“…Regardless of method or approach for topic detection, which mentioned above, previous research analysis in these domains are limited to narrow research areas or are done for the specific location. For example, International Business [23], Industrial Productivity [5], Supply Chain Resilience [24], Public Private Partnership [14], Information Privacy [16], Cloud Computing [4], Health Information Technology [25], Grean Building based studies [26], and Multiple Criteria Decision Making [27] were analyzed. In some cases, analyzing the research status of a domain in a specific location has been considered; Environmental Science in Iran [28], Biomedical Engineering in Thailand [18] and management in Latin America and the Caribbean [6] are some samples.…”

Evolution of IT, Management and Industrial Engineering research: a topic model approach

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Information Technology (IT), Management and Industrial Engineering are correlated academic disciplines which their publications rose significantly over the last decades. The aim of this study is analyzing the research evolution, determining the important topics and areas and depiction the trend of interdisciplinary topics in these domains. To accomplish this, the text mining techniques are used and the combination of bibliographic analysis and topic modeling approach are applied on their publications in the WOS repository over the last 20 years. In the topic extraction process, a heuristic function was suggested to key extraction, and some new applicable criteria were defined to compare the topics. Moreover, a novel approach was proposed to determine the high-level category for each topic. The results determined the hot-important topics and incremented, decremented and fixed topics are identified. Subsequently, comparing the high-level research areas confirmed the strong scientific relationships between them. This study presents a deep knowledge about internal research evolution of domains and illustrates the effect of topics on each other over the past 20 years. Furthermore, the methodology of this study could be applied to determine the interdisciplinary topics and observe the research evolution of other academic domains.
