23rd Nordic Workshop on Bibliometrics and Research Policy 2018 Book of abstracts
- 2018
-
Proceedings (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Initiated by Professors Olle Persson and Peter Ingwersen, bibliometric researchers in the Nordic countries have arranged annual Nordic workshops on bibliometrics since 1996. The general scope of the Nordic Workshop on Bibliometrics and Research Policy is to present recent bibliometric research in the Nordic countries, to create better linkages between the bibliometric research groups and their PhD students, and to link bibliometric research with research policy.The workshop language is English and the workshop is open to participants from any nation. The 23rd Nordic Workshop on Bibliometrics and Research Policy (NWB’2018) was organized by the Swedish School of Library and Information Science (SSLIS) at University of Borås, Sweden. It was held at University of Borås, on November 7-9th, 2018 with 100 participants.In total, we received 35 submissions. After reviewing the submissions, the program committee decided which papers were to be presented orally and which as poster presentations. 21 papers were accepted as oral presentations. These, as well as the titles of the two invited keynote talks and the abstracts of 9 posters, are presented as abstracts in these proceedings. The posters and oral presentation slides are also available for viewing and peer-feedback at figshare (with citable DOIs):https://doi.orgWe would like to thank all authors for their submissions, the session chairs and the keynote speakers, Fredrik Åström and Merle Jacob, for their contributions to the workshop and the student volunteers, for their diligent efforts during the workshop. Further, we would like to thank the sponsors for their generous financial support, without which the Nordic workshops could not be organised in their current form.The NWB’2017 website is at https://hb.se/nwb2018Follow on twitter as @nwb_2018 and #nwb2018

Discursive shifts in the Swedish parliament
- 2021
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This work in progress aims to perform a comprehensive analysis of digital data publicly available from the Swedish parliament, such as motions, interpellations, and protocols from discussions in the plenum. To this end, we will use methods based on computational linguistics, such as topic modeling, word embeddings, and sentiment analysis, to identify prominent discourses corresponding to co-occurrence patterns of the words used. Using data from the early 1970s and onward, this project will involve a chronological examination of semantic and discursive changes with regard to topics such as equality, neutrality, the EU, the monarchy, immigration, climate change, and cultural policy. One research question that will be investigated in relation to this analysis is to what extent discursive changes can be detected within specific political parties, and what historical and political reasons can be posited to underlie these changes.Another research question focuses on scientometric aspects of how scholarly research is used to support claims made in the political discussion. With regard to this question, we will more specifically investigate the conceptual aspects of the texts surrounding citations (so-called citances) which will be mined for information such as what research is referred to in terms of individuals, position, disciplinary affiliations, and active research topics. In these citances, the significant content is often present as latent references that require further elucidation, together with an analysis of the sentiments expressed in the argumentation. This analysis will be further enhanced by investigating the usage of hedge terms that may indicate a level of uncertainty about the cited research.

MESH classification of clinical guidelinesusing conceptual embeddings of references
- 2019
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the 17th conference of the International society for scientometrics and informetrics, ISSI. - 9788833811185 ; , s. 859-864

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this study, we investigate different strategies for assigning MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) terms to clinical guidelines using machine learning. Features based on words in titles and abstracts are investigated and compared to features based on topics assigned to references cited by the guidelines. Two of the feature engineering strategies utilize word embeddings produced by recent models based on in the distributional hypothesis, called word2vecand fastText. The evaluation results show that reference-based strategies tend to yield a higher recall and F1 scores for MeSH terms with a sufficient amount of training instances, whereas title and abstract based features yield a higher precision.

Probabilistic explorations of citation contexts: Citation roles and subject content of scientific references
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the 26th International Conference on Science and Technology Indicators.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this study, we have started to investigate how distinguishing the role of the cited reference from the subject of the cited reference can facilitate a more nuanced way to evaluate the citation context in the referring paper. Using natural language processing methods, we have developed methods to both enrich and distinguish specific traits in the aggregated citances. In future work we intend to extend the present analysis to a larger set of publications from the corpus and to cover more disciplines to be able to evaluate the results more precisely.

Topic modelling approaches to aggregated citation data
- 2017
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this research in progress paper we report on preliminary results from the proposed novel uses of topic modelling approaches to bibliographic references as sources for “bags-of-words” instead of actual text content in scientometric settings. The actual cited references, viewed as concept symbols for paradigmatic approaches to earlier research, could thereby be used to cluster research. We will demonstrate an explorative approach to using cited reference topics for the discovery of hidden semantic reference structures in a set of scientific articles. If found fruitful and robust, this approach could complement existing text based and citation based techniques to clustering of research that might bridge the two approaches. By approaching references as “words” and reference lists as “sentences” (or documents) of such “words”, we demonstrate that the topical structure of document collections can also be analyzed using an alternative and complementary source of content, which additionally provides an interesting perspective on bibliographic references as units of a meta language describing document content.

Engineering Terrorismmindedness: A Scientometric Study of the 9/11-effect on STEM Research, 1989-2022

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We study terrorism’s shaping of STEM research through the development within engineer-ing research of a ‘terrorismmindedness’, i.e. terrorist threat domestication through integra-tion in research practice. This is done by a distant reading of how research in the engineer-ing sciences is increasingly addressing terrorism-related topics. By means of an in-depth bibliometric analysis of some 3.000 terrorism-related scientific articles published 1989–2022, we construct within the subject area ‘Engineering’ in Web of Science its research subfield ‘Terrorism Related Engineering Research’. The publications are analysed by bib-liometric mapping, co-occurrence text measures and ‘algorithmic historiography’ using the HistCite tool. Papers cited together are mapped using VOSviewer to identify concepts and the results are clustered according to topicality, revealing the various terrorism-related re-search interests among engineering scientists.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Det finns en tydlig 11 septembereffekt inom amerikansk forskning. Den märks inom forskning om biologiska vapen men även inom geografisk informationsvetenskap - de system som ligger till grund för GPS. Båda disciplinerna har utformat sin forskningsagenda i linje med det nya säkerhetsakademiska tänkandet och erbjuder vetenskaplig assistans i kriget mot terrorismen. Även inom andra natur-, bio- och ingenjörsvetenskaper har mer och mer forskning relaterats till terrorism.
