Analyzing the Dynamics of Research by Extracting Key Aspects of Scientific Papers

We present a method for characterizing a research work in terms of its focus, domain of application, and techniques used. We show how tracing these aspects over time provides a novel measure of the influence of research communities on each other. We extract these characteristics by matching semantic extraction patterns, learned using bootstrapping, to the dependency trees of sentences in an article’s
