Introducing metaknowledge: Software for computational research in information science, network analysis, and science of science

作者:

Highlights:

• metaknowledge accepts input from the Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Proquest Dissertation and Theses, and administrative data from some funding agencies.

• metaknowledge producing tidy datasets for longitudinal research, reference publication year spectroscopy, computational text analysis, and network analysis.

• metaknowledge is open source and integrates well with open and reproducible workflows.

• metaknowledge interfaces seamlessly with other software, including R, VOSViewer, Gephi, etc.

• metaknowledge is very fast and computationally efficient with large datasets.
