Using text analysis to quantify the similarity and evolution of scientific disciplines
2018
Royal Society Open Science
We use an information-theoretic measure of linguistic similarity to investigate the organization and evolution of scientific fields. ...
An analysis of almost 20M papers from the past three decades reveals that the linguistic similarity is related but different from experts and citation-based classifications, leading to an improved view ...
This scheme is a hierarchical tree with scientific fields defined at 3 levels (domains, disciplines, and specialties). ...
