PAPER2VEC AND CITE2VEC METHODS FOR ANALYZING COLLECTIONS OF SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS

Abstract

Collections of scientific publications are growing rapidly. Scientists have access to portals containing a large number of documents. Such a large amount of data is difficult to investigate. Methods of document visualization are used to reduce labor costs, search for necessary and similar documents, evaluate the scientific contribution of certain publications and reveal hidden links between documents. The methods of document visualization can be based on various models of document representation. In recent years, word embedding methods for natural language processing have become extremely popular. Following them, methods for analyzing text collections began to appear to obtain vector representations of documents. Although there are many document analyzing systems, new methods can give new understandings of collections, have better performance for analyzing large collections of documents, or find new relationships between documents. This article discusses two methods Paper2vec and Cite2vec that get vector representations of documents using citation information. The text provides a brief description of the considered methods for analyzing collections of scientific publications, describes experiments with these methods, including the visualization of the results of the methods and a description of the problems that arise.
