Abstract-In this paper, we classify 75 analytic techniques in terms of their primary function. We then highlight where across the stages of the generic analytic workflow the techniques might be best applied. Importantly, most of the techniques have some shortcomings, and none guarantee an accurate or bias-free analytic conclusion. We discuss how the findings of the present paper can be used to develop criteria for evaluating analytic techniques as well as the performance of analysts. We also discuss which sets of techniques ought to be consolidated as well as reveal gaps that need to be filled by new techniques.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
