- Abstract
- Literature-based discovery systems aim at discovering valuable latent connections
- between previously disparate research areas. This is achieved by analyzing the
- contents of their respective literatures with the help of various intelligent
- computational techniques. In this paper, we review the progress of
- literature-based discovery research, focusing on understanding their technical
- features and evaluating their performance. The present literature-based
- discovery techniques can be divided into two general approaches: the traditional
- approach and the emerging approach. The traditional approach, which dominate the
- current research landscape, comprises mainly of techniques that rely on
- utilizing lexical statistics, knowledge-based and visualization methods in order
- to address literature-based discovery problems. On the other hand, we have also
- observed the births of new trends and unprecedented paradigm shifts among the
- recently emerging literature-based discovery approach. These trends are likely
- to shape the future trajectory of the next generation literature-based discovery
- systems.
