Dr. YEUNG Chi Ho - Optimizing Knowledge Flow in the Research Community through Statistical Physics
Chief Investigator
Dr. YEUNG Chi Ho
Project Year:
2019-20
Description:
In our proposed research, we aim to employ techniques in text mining and statistical inference, integrated with the Physics approaches of optimization, and the approaches for complex networks and the Science of Science, (1) to understand examples where knowledges are re-discovered independently due to ineffective knowledge flow, and then to derive tools to reduce future knowledge re-discovery and to save resources wasted on duplicated research; (2) to give a holistic picture of research development within and connecting different areas of research; (3) and ultimately, to apply all our findings to devise new search protocols which optimize literature search, to facilitate knowledge flow in the research community as a whole. We will first focus our study on the literatures in the different areas of Physics, of which the publication database is readily available, and extend the methods to other areas upon successful attempts.
