悄然兴起的科学知识图谱

The rise of mapping knowledge domain

科学知识图谱是显示科学知识的发展进程与结构关系的一种图形。它的悄然兴起,一方面是揭示科学知识及其活动规律的科学计量学从数学表达转向图形表达的产物,另一方面又是显示科学知识地理分布的知识地图转向以图象展现知识结构关系与演进规律的结果。这里,在介绍有关科学知识图谱基本概念的基础上,从数据库、数据格式及存取,数据分析算法,可视化和互动设计,科学计量学等方面阐述了有关科学知识地图绘制的最新进展,并展望了其应用前景。其进展表明,无论是对于科学技术研究,还是对于企业技术创新,科学知识图谱都是一种有效的知识管理工具。

Mapping knowledge domain is a kind of graph showing the relationship between evolution and structure for science knowledge. Its rise shows that ,one hand, the research direction for the scientometrics revealing the law of sciences knowledge and science activity is turning from mathematics expression to graph expression, on the other hand, the display for knowledge map is turning from geography distribution to knowledge structure relationship and evolution rule. Basing on the basic concepts of knowledge map, this paper introduce the lasted improvement in mapping knowledge domain on three aspects, which are Data bases&data format&access, Data analysis algorithms,Visualization&interactive design and scientometrics. Its Promising applications showing that mapping knowledge domain is an effective knowledge management tool to science&technology research and enterprise technology innovation.
