国内外信息可视化研究的比较分析

Comparative Analysis of Researches on Information Visualizationat Home and Abroad

为挖掘国内及国际信息可视化领域研究主体和理论来源的异同,全面把握该领域的理论根基与发展趋势,以CNKI、CSSCI和WoS数据库中15年来信息可视化领域的文献为研究对象,借助Ucinet和CiteSpaceⅡ,首先对比分析研究文献的时间分布,通过作者共被引分析挖掘国内外核心作者,并进行作者聚类分析,然后利用共现分析研究地域分布,最后通过文献共被引分析对该领域的知识基础进行比较,得到信息可视化领域的基础性文献。

[ Abstract] This paper arms to find the similarities and differences of research subjects and theoretical sources, and comprehensively grasp theoretical foundation and development trend of the field. Firstly, based on the related articles about information visualization from CNKI, CSSCI and WoS in recent 15 years, this paper comparatively analyzes their time distribution, and identifies core authors through author co-citation analysis by CiteSpace Ⅱ. Secondly, it analyzes the geographical distribution by Ucinet. Finally, it makes a comparative analysis on the knowledge base in this field through literatures co-citation analysis, and identifies the basic literatures about information visualization.
