  1. What Researchers Want Links from this talk: bit.ly/stmwant Cody Dunne Dept. of Computer Science and Human-Computer Interaction Lab, University of Maryland cdunne@cs.umd.edu STM 3rd Master Class November 7-9, 2011 Adelphi, MD, USA

  2. Researchers want to… • Find a specific paper • Explore a research area • Do retrospective analysis • Share their results

  3. 1. Find a specific paper • Metadata or PDF? • From memory (search) • From reference list • DOI/URL • Search

  4. 2. Exploring a research area • Foundations • Emerging research topics • State of the art/open problems • Collaborations & relationships between Communities • Field evolution • Easily understandable surveys

  5. User requirements • Control over the paper collection • Choose custom subset via query, then iteratively drill down, filter, & refine • Overview either as visualization or text statistics • Orient within subset • Easy to understand metrics for identifying interesting papers • Ranking & filtering • Create groups & annotate with findings • Organize discovery process • Share results

  6. Action Science Explorer • Bibliometriclexical link mining to create a citation network and citation context • Network clustering and multi-document summarization to extract key points • Potent network analysis and visualization tools www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/ase

  7. Reference management & grouping

  8. Citation network overview Communities, outliers, invalid data

  9. Statistics & visualization • Network statistics • Degree • Betweenness • Closeness • Pagerank • Attributes • Year • Downloads • Citations • References

  10. Field evolution

  11. Citation context & summarization • Citation context • Key contributions • Critical reception • Citations to subsequent/similar work • Hyperlinked citations in text • See surrounding context of citation • View cited papers while reading • Multi-document summarization • Citation context • Abstract • Full text

  12. 3. Retrospective analysis • Automatic collection & processing of bibliometric data • Easy access to visual analytic tools for finding clusters, trends, outliers • Communities for sharing data, tools, & results

  13. STICK Project • Scientific, data-driven way to track innovations • Vs. current expert-based, time consuming approaches (e.g., Gartner’s Hype Cycle, tire track diagrams) • Includes both concept and product forms • Study relationships between • Study the innovation ecosystem • Organizations & people • Both those producing & using innovations stick.ischool.umd.edu

  14. Case study: tree visualization • Problem: Traditional 2D node-link diagrams of trees become too large • Solutions: • Treemaps: Nested Rectangles • Cone Trees: 3D Interactive Animations • Hyperbolic Trees: Focus + Context • Measures: • Papers, articles, patents, citations,… • Press releases, blog posts, tweets,… • Users, downloads, sales,…

  15. Treemaps: nested rectangles www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/treemap-history

D., Information visualization using 3D interactive animation, Communications of the ACM, 36, 4 (1993), 51-71. Robertson, G. G., Mackinlay, J. D., and Card, S. K., Cone trees: Animated 3D visualizations of hierarchical information, Proc. ACM SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, ACM Press, New York, (April 1991), 189-194.

  18. Hyperbolic trees: focus & context Lamping, J. and Rao, R., Laying out and visualizing large trees using a hyper-bolic space, Proc. 7th Annual ACM symposium on User Interface Software and Technology, ACM Press, New York (1994), 13-14.

  27. STICK Process News Dissertation Academic Patent Blogs • Identify concepts • Query data sources • Processing • Automatic entity recognition • Crowd-sourced verification • Co-occurrence networks • Visualizing & analyzing • Overall statistics • Co-occurrence networks • Network evolution • Sharing results

  28. 4. Sharing results • Easily usable metadata (BibTeX, EndNote, etc.) • Collaborative authoring • Online communities

  29. Collaborative literature reviews • Organized references • Annotated PDFs www.mendeley.com
