Return to basics: Clustering of scientific literature using structural information
作者:
Highlights:
• We propose a novel approach to emulate the clustering results of co-citation (CC) and bibliographic coupling (BC).
• The proposed method simply replicates a node into two distinct nodes: a citing node and a cited node.
• Citing nodes emulates BC and cited nodes imitates CC with very low computational loads.
• The proposed method generally outperformed BC and CC regarding cluster accuracy measured by normalized mutual information.
• The analysis of intracluster and intercluster geographical proximity suggests that the proposed method retains additional information than BC and CC.
