In a social environment where population aging is rapidly progressing, the healthcare service market is growing fast with the increasing interest in health and quality of life based on rising income levels and the evolution of technology. In this study, after keywords were extracted from Korean and US patent data published on KIPRIS from 2000 to October 2019, frequency analysis, time series analysis, and keyword network analysis were performed. Through this, the change of technology trends were identified, which keywords related to healthcare was shifted from traditional medical words to ICT words. In addition, although the keywords in Korean patents are 55% similar to those in the US, they show an absolute gap in patent production volume. In the next study, we will analyze various data such as domestic and international research and can obtain meaningful implications in the global market on the identified keywords.

Academia and research institutes mainly use qualitative methods that rely on expert judgments to understand and predict research trends and science and technology trends. Since such a technique has the disadvantage of requiring much time and money, in this study, science and technology trends were predicted using keyword network analysis. To that end, 13,618 AI (Artificial Intelligence) patent abstracts were analyzed using keyword network analysis in three separate lots based on the period of the submission of each abstract: analysis period 1 (January 1, 2002 - December 31, 2006), analysis period 2 (January 1, 2007 - December 31, 2011), and analysis period 3 (January 1, 2012 - December 31, 2016). According to the results of frequency analyses, keywords related to methods in the field of AI application appeared more frequently as time passed from analysis period 1 to analysis period 3. In keyword network analyses, the connectivity between keywords related to methods in the field of AI application and other keywords increased over time. In addition, when the connected keywords that showed increasing or decreasing trends during the entire analysis period were analyzed, it could be seen that the connectivity to methods and management in the field of AI application was strengthened while the connectivity to the field of basic science and technology was weakened. According to analysis of keyword connection centrality, the centrality value of the field of AI application increased over time. According to analysis of keyword mediation centrality during analysis period 3, keywords related to methodologies in the field of AI application showed the highest mediation value. Therefore, it is expected that methods in the field of AI application will play the role of powerful intermediaries in AI hereafter. The technique presented in this paper can be employed in the excavation of tasks related to regional innovation or in fields such as social issue visualization.

The purpose of this study is to explore the research trends and knowledge structures of 『Journal of Elementary Mathematics Education in Korea』 by applying the keyword network analysis. To do this, we analyzed the frequency of the occurrence of keywords in the journal and conducted keyword network analysis using the Krkwic program and NodeXL program. The results of the analysis are as follows. Firstly, 749 keywords were extracted from keyword cleansing process and 48 keywords, including mathematics curriculum, mathematics textbooks, school mathematics, mathematical problem solving, mathematically gifted student, etc. appeared more than five times. Secondly, the keyword network analysis showed that the keywords-mathematics textbooks, school mathematics, mathematical problem solving, mathematical communications-have high connection centrality. Finally, we provided the limitations of this study and suggested future research.

The aim of this study was to analyze the research trends in articles published in the Korean Journal of Medical Education (KJME) and Korean Medical Education Review (KMER) using keyword network analysis. The analyses included 507 papers from 2010 to 2019 published in KJME and KMER. First, keyword frequency analysis showed that the research topics that appeared in both journals were "medical student," "curriculum," "clinical clerkship," and "undergraduate medical education." Second, centrality analysis of a network map of the keywords identified "curriculum" and "medical student" as highly important research topics in both journals. Third, a cluster analysis of 20 core keywords in KMER identified research clusters related to academic motivation, achievement, educational measurement, medical competence, and clinical practice (centered on "learning," while in KJME, clusters were related to educational method and program evaluation, medical competence, and clinical practice (centered on "teaching"). In conclusion, future medical education research needs to expand to encompass other research areas, such as educational methods, student evaluations, the educational environment, student counseling, and curriculum.

This study proposes a way to timely forecast open government data (OGD) demand(i.e., OGD requests, search queries, etc.) by using keyword network analysis. According to the analysis results, most of the OGD belonging to the high-demand topics are provided by the domestic OGD portal(data.go.kr), while the OGD related to users' actual needs predicted through topic association analysis are rarely provided. This is because, when providing(or selecting) OGD, relevance to OGD topics takes precedence over relevance to users' OGD requests. The proposed keyword network analysis framework is expected to contribute to the establishment of OGD policies for public institutions in the future as it can quickly and easily forecast users' demand based on actual OGD requests.
