Abstract

There are some limitations in the existing bibliometric methods to satisfy the various requests of the interest parties including researchers, managers, policy makers to identify 1) which research group or researcher is the key player, and the overall trends of the particular technological sub-fields, 2) which research groups, institutions or countries mainly use their research outputs, 3) what are the spin-offs from research outputs to some scientific and technological fields, 4) in which levels they are when comparing their quantitative and qualitative research outputs to those of other competitive institutions. It is essential to develop new informetric indicators and methodologies in order to satisfy stakeholder's various demands and to strengthen qualitative analysis in measuring research performance. This study suggested informetric indicators such as article quality index, citation impact index, international cooperation index, excellent article production index and methodologies including citation analysis, text mining.

이 연구는 국제학술지에 나타난 ‘동해’ 관련 연구에서 ‘동해’ 표기유형별 특성을 계량적으로 분석한 것이다. 이 때 동해표기 유형은 ‘동해 단독’, ‘일본해 단독’, ‘병행표기’로 구분하였다. 분석을 위해 Web of Science DB에서 총 4,192편을 대상으로, 표기유형별 시계열 변화, 저자 소속국가별 표기유형, 연구주제의 차이, 피인용도, 연구협력 및 공저 네트워크를 분석하였다. 그 결과 ‘동해’ 연구에서 ‘일본해 단독 표기’의 비율이 가장 많은 것으로 나타났고, 1990년대 이후 ‘동해 단독 표기’과 ‘병기’의 비율이 지속적으로 상승하고 있었다. 또한 ‘동해’ 연구의 핵심국가는 ‘일본’, ‘러시아’, ‘한국’, ‘미국’, ‘중국’ 5개국이며, ‘일본해 단독 표기’의 경우 ‘일본’을 중심으로 ‘미국’, ‘러시아’, ‘중국’과 공동연구가 활발히 이루어지며, ‘동해 단독 표기’와 ‘병기’는 ‘한국’ 연구자를 중심으로 ‘미국’, ‘일본’과의 연구의 비율이 높았다. 공저 네트워크는 ‘일본해 단독 표기’의 경우 하나의 “거대 구성집단”(Giant Component)을 형성하여 이(異) 집단 간의 협업이 활발히 이루어지고 있으나, ‘동해 단독 표기’의 경우 소속기관을 중심으로 소규모의 연구그룹이 분산된 것으로 나타났다.

Abstract

This study worked on the qualitative analysis about nomenclature East Sea by the record type in researches related to East Sea shown in the scientific journals. Here in this study, the way of marking is classified as three: ‘sole notation of East Sea’, ‘sole notation of Sea of Japan’, and ‘simultaneous notation of both’. Based on a total of 4,192 selections from Web of Science DB, the analysis was followed up for change in time series by the notation type, notation type according to the nation that authors belong to, difference in research topic, impact factor, collaboration in research, and co-authorship network. The result turned out in this work that the sole notation of Sea of Japan accounted for the largest portion. It also showed that the rates of sole notation of East Sea and simultaneous notation have kept increasing continuously since the 1990s. Hub nations regarding the research of East Sea is five including Japan, Russia, Korea, USA, and China. In the case of sole notation of Sea of Japan, active collaboration studies are performed in USA, Russia, and China with a focus in Japan. In the case of sole notation of East Sea and simultaneous use, the research rate is relatively high in USA and Japan with a focus in Korea. As to the co-authorship network in the sole notation of Sea of Japan, sort of a “giant component” among different groups has been set up and through which the collaborative works are actively underway. However, it was found that the research of sole notation of East Sea is dispersed into small groups on the base of relevant individual institution.

최근 이용자들이 정보를 공동생산하고 소비하는 웹기반 서비스들이 활발해지면서 이용자가 정보를 이용한 기록이나 이용자가 습득한 정보를 활용하여 생산한 다양한 부가 정보들이 다시 이용자에게 제공되고 있다. 또한 쌍방향으로 이용자들이 소통할 수 있는 정보채널이 다양해짐으로써 공통된 관심사를 가진 이용자의 정보소비 경험을 공유할 수 있는 방법이 활발하게 모색되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 동시출현정보 분석기법과 자아중심 네트워크 분석 기법을 적용하여 IMDB 서비스의 기존 이용자들이 자신이 보고 싶거나 좋아하는 영화를 선별하여 만들어 놓은 영화리스트에 나타난 정보를 토대로 특정 영화를 좋아하는 이용자가 선호할 만한 다른 영화를 찾아낼 수 있도록 연관영화정보를 다각적으로 표현하였다. 한 영화를 기준으로 연관 영화, 감독, 장르로 분석을 한 결과 영화의 테마나 주인공성향과 같은 다양한 자질로도 연관영화가 연결되었고 감독의 경우 영화내용보다는 감독의 인지도에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 영화는 주제의 복합성이 큰 것으로 나타나 장르가 연관영화정보를 제공하기에 적합하지 않은 것으로 분석되었다.

Abstract

Recently, many information services allow users to collaborate to produce and use information. Sharing information is also important for users who have similar taste or interest. As various channels are available for users to share their experiences and knowledge, users’ data have also been accumulated within the information services. This study collected movie lists made by users of IMDB service. Co-word analysis and ego-centered network analysis were adapted to discover relevant information for users who chose a specific movie. Three factors of movies including movie title, director and genre were used to present related movie information. Movie title is an effective feature to present related movies with various aspects such as theme or characters and the popularity of directors affects on identifying related directors. Genre is not useful to find related movies due to the complexity in the topic of a movie.

Abstract

Authoritative as well as objective information on ranking or dominant research areas of academic departments/schools in a certain discipline is essential for the graduate school applicants. In this study, we performed an informetric analysis to identify dominant research areas in the top 10 U.S. LIS schools. We used two different datasets of research productivity and research interests of the LIS faculty. The correspondence analysis method was employed to graphically display the association between research areas and the LIS schools. We found that the research productivity data collected from SSCI database generated a very informative map presenting which research areas were dominant in which LIS schools. We also found that for the two most productive subject areas in LIS over the past 10-year period, the proportion of research articles in information retrieval decreased to a great extent in the recent 5-year period, whereas that of information seeking behavior showed an almost same degree of increase.

Abstract

Since information scientists have begun trying to quantify significant research trends in scientific publications, ‘-metrics’ research such as ‘bibliometrics’, ‘scientometrics’, ‘informetrics’, ‘webometrics’, and ‘citation analysis’ have been identified as crucial areas of information science. To illustrate the dynamic research activities in these areas, this study investigated the major contributors of ‘-metrics’ research for the last decade at three levels: nations, institutions, and documents. ‘-metrics’ literature of this study was obtained from the Science Citation Index for the years 2001-2011. In this analysis, we used Pathfinder network, PNNC algorithm, PageRank and several indicators based on h-index. In terms of international collaborations, USA and England were identified as major countries. At the institutional level, Katholieke University, Leuven and the University of Amsterdam in Europe and Indiana University and the Office of Naval Research in the USA have led co-research projects in informetrics areas. At the document level, Hirsch’s h-index paper and Ingwersen’s web impact factor paper were identified as the most influential work by two methods: PageRank and single paper h-index.

Abstract

Many readers tend to read books of a specific author and to expand their reading areas according to the author. This study chose Edgar Allan Poe and analyzed the image of the author using co-recommended authors and books by other readers. The frequencies of co-occurred authors and books were investigated and the relations of authors and books were analyzed with network analysis methods. As a result, genre images of Poe, related authors, and related books are discovered. This study also suggested the methods to identify the image of a author, related author groups, and related books for libraries’ reading programs and book curation.

Abstract

In recent years, the changes in information technology have been so dramatic and the rate of changes has increased so much that information science research rigorously evolves with the passage of time and proliferates in diverging research directions dynamically. The aims of this study are to provide a global overview of research trends in information science and to trace its changes in the main topics over time. The study examined the topics of research articles published in JASIST between 1985 and 2009 and identified its changes during five 5 year periods. The study found that the most productive area has consistently been ‘Information Retrieval’, followed by ‘Informetrics’, ‘Information Use and Users’, ‘Network and Technology’, and ‘Publishing and Services’. Information retrieval is a predominant core area in Information Science covering computer-based handling of multimedia information, employment of new semantic methods from other disciplines, and mass information handling on virtual environments. Currently Informetric studies shift from finding existing phenomena to seeking valuable descriptive results and researchers of information use have concentrated especially on information-seeking aspects, so adding greater sophistication to the relatively simple approach taken in information retrieval.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify topic areas of academic library research using two informetric methods; word clustering and Pathfinder network. For the data analysis, 139 articles published in major library and information science journals from 2005 to 2009 were collected from the Korean Science Citation Index database. The keywords that represent research topics were gathered from two sections: an abstract and titles in references. Results showed that reference titles usefully represent topics in detail, and combining abstracts and reference titles can produce an expanded topic map.

Abstract

In this study, web link analysis of the Korean National Archives has been performed using LexiURL to show the dynamic web flow of the National Archives and to identify which closely related institutions the archives should seek to cooperate with for developing an institutional strategic plan. Inlink and co-inlink analysis were performed and, to identify related institutions of the Korean National Archives, a comparison was made with other countries such as Australia, England and the United States. Through web link analysis, several features can be detected and future directions are suggested. Most inlinks and co-inlink of the Korean National Archives were from public institutions, indicating that relationships with educational or research institutions are weak. Moreover, Korean National Archives involve fewer web links related to international activities than other countries. Proceeding from these results, educational function, research function and international activities should be fortified. Korean National Archives need to provide more materials for supporting educational and research activities and more cultural interchange among related institutions. Further research with different heritage institutions such as libraries or museums is needed.
