Muhammad Syafiq Mohd Pozi, Adam Jatowt, Yukiko Kawai · 2020
The new pandemic disease caused by COVID-19 virus is the crucial event over the world in the beginning of 2020. Studies on corona viruses have been however carried since several decades ago, with recent research papers published on weekly basis. We demonstrate a simple approach to explore CORD-19 dataset to provide a high level overview of important semantic changes that occurred over time. Our method aims to support better understanding of large domain-specific collections of scholarly publications that span long time periods and could be regarded as complementary to frequency-based analysis.
