Impact assessment and visualization


This Java based application implements the concepts discussed in M. Wallace, Extracting and visualizing research impact semantics , Proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Semantic and Social Media Adaptation and Personalization, Corfu, Greece, 2014.


It accepts as input a list of publications in an XML file (as exported by our citation retrieval software) and, by examining the publication media, estimates the sciences and scientific fields they are related to. It's intended use is to process lists of citations in order to estimate a researcher's impact in different fields of science; other uses are easy to envisage.
