Do peers see more in a paper than its authors?
Recent years have shown a gradual shift in the content of biomedical publications that is freely accessible, from titles and abstracts to full text. This has enabled new forms of automatic text analysis and has given rise to some interesting questions: How informative is the abstract compared to the full-text? What important information in the full-text is not present in the abstract? What should a good summary contain that is not already in the abstract? Do authors and peers see an article differently? We answer these questions by comparing the information content of the abstract to that in citances-sentences containing citations to that article. We contrast the important points of an article as judged by its authors versus as seen by peers. Focusing on the area of molecular interactions, we perform manual and automatic analysis, and we find that the set of all citances to a target article not only covers most information (entities, functions, experimental methods, and other biological concepts) found in its abstract, but also contains 20% more concepts. We further present a detailed summary of the differences across information types, and we examine the effects other citations and time have on the content of citances
Text Analytics for Android Project
Most advanced text analytics and text mining tasks include text classification, text clustering, building ontology, concept/entity extraction, summarization, deriving patterns within the structured data, production of granular taxonomies, sentiment and emotion analysis, document summarization, entity relation modelling, interpretation of the output. Already existing text analytics and text mining cannot develop text material alternatives (perform a multivariant design), perform multiple criteria analysis,
automatically select the most effective variant according to different aspects (citation index of papers (Scopus, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar) and authors (Scopus, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar), Top 25 papers, impact factor of journals, supporting phrases, document name and contents, density of keywords), calculate utility degree and market value. However, the Text Analytics for Android Project can perform the aforementioned functions. To the best of the knowledge herein, these functions have not been previously implemented; thus this is the first attempt to do so. The Text Analytics for Android Project is briefly described in this article
Measuring academic influence: Not all citations are equal
The importance of a research article is routinely measured by counting how
many times it has been cited. However, treating all citations with equal weight
ignores the wide variety of functions that citations perform. We want to
automatically identify the subset of references in a bibliography that have a
central academic influence on the citing paper. For this purpose, we examine
the effectiveness of a variety of features for determining the academic
influence of a citation. By asking authors to identify the key references in
their own work, we created a data set in which citations were labeled according
to their academic influence. Using automatic feature selection with supervised
machine learning, we found a model for predicting academic influence that
achieves good performance on this data set using only four features. The best
features, among those we evaluated, were those based on the number of times a
reference is mentioned in the body of a citing paper. The performance of these
features inspired us to design an influence-primed h-index (the hip-index).
Unlike the conventional h-index, it weights citations by how many times a
reference is mentioned. According to our experiments, the hip-index is a better
indicator of researcher performance than the conventional h-index
The Structure and Dynamics of Co-Citation Clusters: A Multiple-Perspective Co-Citation Analysis
A multiple-perspective co-citation analysis method is introduced for
characterizing and interpreting the structure and dynamics of co-citation
clusters. The method facilitates analytic and sense making tasks by integrating
network visualization, spectral clustering, automatic cluster labeling, and
text summarization. Co-citation networks are decomposed into co-citation
clusters. The interpretation of these clusters is augmented by automatic
cluster labeling and summarization. The method focuses on the interrelations
between a co-citation cluster's members and their citers. The generic method is
applied to a three-part analysis of the field of Information Science as defined
by 12 journals published between 1996 and 2008: 1) a comparative author
co-citation analysis (ACA), 2) a progressive ACA of a time series of
co-citation networks, and 3) a progressive document co-citation analysis (DCA).
Results show that the multiple-perspective method increases the
interpretability and accountability of both ACA and DCA networks.Comment: 33 pages, 11 figures, 10 tables. To appear in the Journal of the

Text Summarization Techniques: A Brief Survey
In recent years, there has been a explosion in the amount of text data from a
variety of sources. This volume of text is an invaluable source of information
and knowledge which needs to be effectively summarized to be useful. In this
review, the main approaches to automatic text summarization are described. We
review the different processes for summarization and describe the effectiveness
and shortcomings of the different methods.Comment: Some of references format have update
