Tracing database usage: Detecting main paths in database link networks

作者：

Highlights：

• Citation-weighted and similarity-weighted database link network are generated.

• Database usage are analyzed by identifying main paths in database link networks.

• Major difference between these two networks is database overlap degree between paths.

• Latter database link network shows better differentiation of network components.
