Topics in social network analysis and network science
This chapter introduces statistical methods used in the analysis of social
networks and in the rapidly evolving parallel-field of network science.
Although several instances of social network analysis in health services
research have appeared recently, the majority involve only the most basic
methods and thus scratch the surface of what might be accomplished.
Cutting-edge methods using relevant examples and illustrations in health
services research are provided
Chemoinformatics Research at the University of Sheffield: A History and Citation Analysis
This paper reviews the work of the Chemoinformatics Research Group in the Department of Information Studies at the University of Sheffield, focusing particularly on the work carried out in the period 1985-2002. Four major research areas are discussed, these involving the development of methods for: substructure searching in databases of three-dimensional structures, including both rigid and flexible molecules; the representation and searching of the Markush structures that occur in chemical patents; similarity searching in databases of both two-dimensional and three-dimensional structures; and compound selection and the design of combinatorial libraries. An analysis of citations to 321 publications from the Group shows that it attracted a total of 3725 residual citations during the period 1980-2002. These citations appeared in 411 different journals, and involved 910 different citing organizations from 54 different countries, thus demonstrating the widespread impact of the Group's work
