Title: | Lattices in citation networks: an investigation into the structure of citation graphs | Authors: | Yong, Fang ROUSSEAU, Ronald |
Issue Date: | 2001 | Publisher: | KLUWER ACADEMIC PUBL | Source: | Scientometrics, 50(2). p. 273-287 | Abstract: | The main purposes of this article are to uncover interesting features in real-world citationnetworks, and to highlight important substructures. In particular, it applies lattice theory tocitation analysis. On the applied side, it shows that lattice substructures exist in real-word citationnetworks. It is further shown that, through its relations with co-citations and bibliographiccoupling, the diamond (a four-element lattice) is a basic structural element in citation analysis.Finally, citation compactness is calculated for the four- and five element lattices. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/7164 | ISSN: | 0138-9130 | e-ISSN: | 1588-2861 | DOI: | 10.1023/A:1010573723540 | ISI #: | 000167664900005 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
