This paper construct the TIG on the ACL Anthology Network dataset and leverage it to analyze the properties of seminal papers and observe that seminal papers disseminate knowledge across different communities, trigger more research within its own community and apart from introducing new ideas, string together ideas from different communities.
Abstract
Every scientific article attempts to derive knowledge from existing literature and augment it with new insights. This dynamics of knowledge is commonly explored through references (it draws knowledge from) and citations (its impact on the field). In this paper, we propose to explore this phenomenon through construction of a topic influence graph (TIG) based on topic similarity between articles. More importantly, out of the set of possible TIGs, we determine an optimal TIG by using knowledge from citation graphs. Construction of TIG leverages traditional network analysis tools like community (sub-field) identification. In this paper, we construct the TIG on the ACL Anthology Network (AAN) dataset and leverage it to analyze the properties of seminal papers. Interestingly, we observe that seminal papers disseminate knowledge across different communities, trigger more research within its own community and apart from introducing new ideas, string together ideas from different communities.

Graggle: A Graph-based Approach to Document Clustering

I. J. King, +1 more
TL;DR: Graggle as mentioned in this paper uses graph autoencoder to generate low-dimensional vector embeddings from unlabeled documents and then leverages graph learning techniques to turn this graph into a highly efficient tool for dimensionality reduction.

Fast unfolding of communities in large networks

TL;DR: This work proposes a heuristic method that is shown to outperform all other known community detection methods in terms of computation time and the quality of the communities detected is very good, as measured by the so-called modularity.

Fast unfolding of communities in large networks

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a simple method to extract the community structure of large networks based on modularity optimization, which is shown to outperform all other known community detection methods in terms of computation time.

Quantifying long-term scientific impact.

TL;DR: A mechanistic model is derived for the citation dynamics of individual papers, allowing us to collapse the citation histories of papers from different journals and disciplines into a single curve, indicating that all papers tend to follow the same universal temporal pattern.

A Discriminative Approach to Topic-Based Citation Recommendation

TL;DR: A two-layer Restricted Boltzmann Machine model, called RBM-CS, is proposed, which can discover topic distributions of paper content and citation relationship simultaneously and can significantly outperform baseline methods for citation recommendation.

Topic evolution and social interactions: how authors effect research

TL;DR: Applied to the CiteSeer dataset, a collection of documents in academia, the trends of research topics, how research topics are related and which are stable are shown and new ways for evaluating author impact are proposed.
