计算机科学引文网络中的信息扩散

Information Diffusion in Computer Science Citation Networks

Xiaolin Shi, Belle Tseng, Lada A. Adamic

摘要:

论文引文网络是一种传统的交流思想和知识的社会媒介。本文从信息扩散的角度来看待引文网络。研究了计算机科学期刊引文网络中信息路径的结构特征,分析了不同引文选择对论文后续影响的影响。我们发现,引用最近的论文和论文在同一个学术界获得了略多的引用平均。然而,这种相关性在高引用论文中较弱,这意味着对于高影响力的工作,引用一个人的领域是不太重要的。我们还研究了引文网络特定子集的信息流差异:书籍与会议和期刊文章,计算机科学的不同领域,以及不同的时间段。

英文摘要:

The paper citation network is a traditional social medium for the exchange of ideas and knowledge. In this paper we view citation networks from the perspective of information diffusion. We study the structural features of the information paths through the citation networks of publications in computer science, and analyze the impact of various citation choices on the subsequent impact of the article. We find that citing recent papers and papers within the same scholarly community garners a slightly larger number of citations on average. However, this correlation is weaker among well-cited papers implying that for high impact work citing within one's field is of lesser importance. We also study differences in information flow for specific subsets of citation networks: books versus conference and journal articles, different areas of computer science, and different time periods.
