Parvez Ahamad H. Kazi, Manasi S. Patwardhan · 2015
In this paper we propose a method for producing a citation summary of research articles that concentrates on the context of articles which cite the given article. Parameters for citation summary are selected in such a way that, this citation summary can be used to evaluate a qualitative citation index for the research articles. Considering some factors such as, semantic similarity between the citing article and cited article, sentiment analysis of text surrounding the citation and the weighted self-citations, the method produces a citation summary. We also present a PageRank based algorithm that uses these parameters to calculate the qualitative citation index for research articles. The output of this citation summary and citation index system gives users an overview of a research article.
