An Event-Centric Scientific Literature Information Organization Method

Abstract

Massive scientific and technical literature has led to information overload for researchers. To obtain scientific and technical information efficiently, this paper proposes a method to organize scientific literature information with events. It aims to promoting the discovery and management of relations among scientific literature for intelligent applications. To construct the semantic link network of scientific research events, the first step is to analyze external characteristics and internal textual contents of scientific literature, and then extract information as the elements of scientific research events. Publication events, cooperation events and citation events formulate the semantic link network of scientific research events. We investigate data sources for the construction of scientific research events, and then we verify the possibility of the proposed method in the case study.
