Science and Technology Text Mining: Electric Power Sources

Abstract

Database Tomography (DT) is a textual database analysis system consisting of two major components: 1) algorithms for extracting multi-word phrase frequencies and phrase proximities (physical closeness of the multi-word technical phrases) from any type of large textual database, to augment 2) interpretative capabilities of the expert human analyst. DT was used to derive technical intelligence from a Power Sources database derived from the Science Citation Index (SCI). Phrase frequency analysis by the technical domain experts provided the pervasive technical themes of the Power Sources database, and the phrase proximity analysis provided the relationships among the pervasive technical themes. Bibliometric analysis of the Power Sources literature supplemented the DT results with author/ journal/ institution/ country publication and citation data. Public reporting burden for the collection of information is estimated to average 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to Washington Headquarters Services, Directorate for Information Operations and Reports, 1215 Jefferson Davis Highway, Suite 1204, Arlington VA 22202-4302. Respondents should be aware that notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person shall be subject to a penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information if it does not display a currently valid OMB control number.

Trend Topic Analysis for Wind Energy Researches: A Data Mining Approach Using Text Mining

“…Text mining is a very useful methodology to develop a query for comprehensive information retrieval from published literature [3,4]. It is also an important and fascinating area of modern analytics with its extremely iterative process [5].…”

“…It can be used to identify technical themes in large unstructured text databases [7][8][9][10][11][12]. Text mining can also be used to enhance information retrieval [13,14], to discuss potential discovery and innovation based on merging linkages between different working areas [15,16], to uncover unexpected asymmetries from the literature [17,18], to estimate global levels of effort in science and technology sub-disciplines [19][20][21], to help authors for increasing the citation of their works [3,19,20,22], and to track myriad research impacts across time and application areas. An agent based text mining approach was investigated on financial news to assist the investors in deciding to buy and sell stocks in Taiwan market [23].…”

Study on Horizon Scanning with a Focus on the Development of AI-Based Medical Products: Citation Network Analysis

“…Many fields have used also text mining to analyze technology trends; Kostoff et.al. (2004) analyzed multi-word phrase frequencies and phrase proximity to extract energy-related taxonomic structures [ 20 ]. Another study discussed the trend in the field of information security by creating a network of co-occurring words and focusing on clusters with network centralities [ 21 ].…”

Creating an academic and technological landscape of service innovation: An analysis of the citation network

“…As an example of the former, Kostoff et al analyzed multi-word phrase frequencies and phrase proximities, and extracted the taxonomic structure of energy research [7] [8]. In previous works, citationbased approaches, latter ones, were used to describe the network of energy-related journals using journal citation data [9] or journal classification data [10].…”
