Prior art search is a core process of technology management performed by inventors and applicants, patent examiners, and employees in the patent industry. As a result of insufficient academic research on a systematic prior art search methodology, the process has been often carried out depending on the subjective judgment of researchers. Previous studies on exploring prior arts based on semantics have also have the risk of underestimating the similarity of major prior arts due to the nature of patent documents where the same technical ideas are expressed in various terms. In this study, we propose an effective prior art search methodology based on hierarchical citation analysis, which provides a clear criterion for selecting core prior arts by calculating weights according to the relative importance of the collected patents. In order to verify the feasibility of the proposed methodology, a case study was conducted to explore the core prior art of one patent in the display field. As a result, 10 core prior art candidates were selected out of the 206 precedent patents.

This study aims to analyze the research trend of lifelong education in Korea over the last 10 years based on social network analysis. To do this, a dataset has been collected from KCI (Korea Citation Index) database. According to the results of the study, firstly, the current status of lifelong education research by the year in the last 10 years showed a relatively high ratio between 2008 and 2009 and 2014 ~ 2015. Secondly, the most active networks between authors and journals constitute a key group in the order of 'Lifelong Education Study' and 'Lifelong Learning Society'. Thirdly, the research institutes with the largest number of lifelong education research papers are Soongsil University, Dong-Eui University, and Korea National Open University. In the network with the authors' network, the only authors were K8 working at Chonbuk National University, and the co-authors, H4, who works at Kyungpook National University, showed the most active network. Finally, the core keyword network based on the thesis topic was analyzed as having higher connection centrality in the order of 'lifelong education', 'lifelong educator', and 'university lifelong education'.

This study analyzed keyword networks and Author's Affiliation networks of hydrogen-related papers published in Korea Citation Index (KCI) journals from 2016 to 2020. The study investigated co-occurrence patterns of institutions over time to examine collaboration trends of hydrogen scholars. The study also conducted frequency analysis of keyword networks to identify key topics and visualized keyword networks to explore topic trends. The result showed Collaborative research between institutions has not yet been extensively expanded. However, collaboration trends were much more pronounced with local universities. Keyword network analysis exhibited continuing diversification of topics in hydrogen research of Korea. In addition centrality analysis found hydrogen research mostly deals with multi-disciplinary and complex aspects like hydrogen production, transportation, and public policy.

최근 Web of Science에 도입된 Eigenfactor지수와 논문 영향력 지수(Article Influence Score), 그리고 Scopus에 도입된 SJR 지수는 구글의 PageRank 알고리즘과 같은 네트워크 분석 방식의 인용지수이다. 국내 인용 색인 데이터베이스는 인용 링크가 외부로 향하는 비율과 자기 인용 비율이 높으므로 기존의 네트워크 인용 지수 산출 방식을 그대로 적용하기에는 어려움이 많다. 이 연구에서는 국내 인용색인DB에 대해서 대표적인 네트워크 인용 지수인 저널 페이지랭크를 시험적으로 측정해보고 국내 학술지의 상황을 고려한 개선방안을 모색하였다.

Purpose: This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review to suitably identify wide and specific issues and topics on service quality in supply chain. Methods: This study is to investigate service quality in supply chain research using a systematic literature review methodology. In order to extract influential journals and papers, we used the SJR impact factor provided by the SCOPUS database. The collected 169 papers were analyzed using bibliometric analysis, citation analysis as well as keywords network. Results: We conducted a bibliometric analysis to identify top authors contributing to service quality in supply chain and their issues, and further examined important keywords and new emerging keywords. In addition, we extracted five influential papers by PageRank to clarify critical issues and divided into five clusters to identify topics of service quality in supply chain by using network-based approach. In order to examine comprehensive issues and topics of service quality in supply chain, we constructed a keyword network to observe difference in the classification of important keywords across network centrality measures. Conclusion: Our study reviewed literature on service quality in supply chain and explored the future directions and trends of service quality in supply chain.

This study aims to identify specific topics, trends, and structural characteristics of scholarly communication research, based on 1,435 articles published from 1970 to 2018 in the Scopus database through Latent Dirichlet Allocation topic modeling, serial analysis, and network analysis. Topic modeling, time series analysis, and network analysis were used to analyze specific topics, trends, and structures, respectively. The results were summarized into three sets as follows. First, the specific topics of scholarly communication research were nineteen in number, including research resource management and research data, and their research proportion is even. Second, as a result of the time series analysis, there are three upward trending topics: Topic 6: Open Access Publishing, Topic 7: Green Open Access, Topic 19: Informal Communication, and two downward trending topics: Topic 11: Researcher Network and Topic 12: Electronic Journal. Third, the network analysis results indicated that high mean profile association topics were related to the institution, and topics with high triangle betweenness centrality, such as Topic 14: Research Resource Management, shared the citation context. Also, through cluster analysis using parallel nearest neighbor clustering, six clusters connected with different concepts were identified.

As interdisciplinary research has been dominant in various fields, the purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between interdisciplinarity and research impact in the field of Library and Information Science. For a data set, ten journals ranked as the top of 2011 JCR's in terms of JIF (Journal Impact Factor) were selected. The citation data of 1,873 articles from the ten journals were collected from the WoS during the period from 2006 to 2010. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, as network analysis was conducted to investigate the interdisciplinarity of LIS field, interdisciplinarity indicators, and research impact factors were statistically analyzed. The findings of this study confirmed the interdisciplinary knowledge structure of the LIS field as previous studies identified. More importantly, this study demonstrated that a positive correlation existed between interdisciplinarity represented as betweenness centrality and research impact.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to provide direction for future research in the field of Korean medicine by analyzing microbiome based technologies emerging as a new diagnostic and treatment paradigm. Methods: To achieve the purpose of the study intellectual property data was used. After establishing citation network from registered microbiome-related US patents, citation network was analyzed by knowledge persistence-based main path approach to understanding technological trajectories. Furthermore, community detection algorithms were used to quantitatively identifying specific technological domain in a particular time period. Results: Results shows that early technologies in livestock industry contribute most to the recent patents. Knowledge in the patents flow through the path of food and beverage technological domain, and finally are inherited to the recent development of diagnosis, treatment and prevention technic. Conclusions: This study indicate that developing diagnostic tools which can link the composition of microbiome to specific diseases should be given high priority. Researches should lead to novel therapeutic strategies. Specifically, improving reliability of pattern identification and finding effective therapeutic compositions based on principles of Korean medicine is necessary.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between the centrality and the research performance by conducting the social network analysis for the social science journal in the last 10 years. As a result of the relationship analysis, the correlation between centrality and research productivity was highly correlated in most groups, but the impact factor and frequency of citations were not significant. In relation with the comprehensive research such as a H-index, middle productive group correlation was more significant than the upper productive group.
