Citation Network Visualization of Reference Papers Based on Influence Groups

Figure1:Citation Network Visualization of Reference Papers based on Influence Groups. In the circular main view (a), the research paper published according to the year can be identified by the node (b), and the size of the node represents the influence of the paper. The red node (c) is the bridge research paper that links the paper to the paper. If you click the node, you can check the detail information of the research paper, the number of citations and the ego network in the subview (d). (http://13.124.91.164)Survey of relevant research papers are very important in academic research to fully understanding the research trends in a given field of interest. Many researchers use keyword searches to investigate their related research. However, it is often difficult to find the desired research papers only through a keyword search. Here we propose a citation network visualization technique that constructs the genealogy of a research paper. It allows the user to trace the genealogy of the reference papers that form the basis of their research via large citation data sets, while also providing a visualization of how the research paper influences its research field.
