Evolution of Co-Authors Communities Formed by Terms on DBLP

The DBLP Computer Science Bibliography server provides biblio- graphic information on major computer science journals and proceedings. DBLP indexes more than 2.1 million articles and contains titles of articles, their authors, years of publication etc. Downloadable DBLP dataset is very interesting resource for evolution analysis of co-author networks. The paper deals with subgraphs of the authors from DBLP with common interests. The common interest of the authors is defined by terms, which are extracted from the titles of articles. The subgraphs are extracted for each year separately based on the published years. These subgraphs represent the communities of co-authors, for which is observed their development in time. That new view of these communities of the co-authors offer a new way for analysis and measurement of article datasets.
