A research team and its subject area: Towards the question of the effective planning of scientific activities

  • Published:
Scientific and Technical Information Processing Aims and scope

Abstract

A research program for modeling the information spaces that exist in separate subject areas of research, which includes the selection of terms, grouping them into term fields, and study of the temporal dynamics of term field updating, is described. Basing on an algorithm of fuzzy clustering C-means, the cluster model of research directions of a research team and the mapping of its scientific interests is proposed. The presented models can be used for planning the activities of members of scientific teams.
