Zitiernetze
Zitiernetze, also known as citation networks, are a method of visualizing and analyzing the relationships between academic or scientific documents based on their citations. These networks represent documents as nodes and the citation links between them as edges. A citation from document A to document B is depicted as a directed edge from node A to node B. The structure of these networks can reveal patterns of influence, knowledge flow, and the evolution of research fields.
Analyzing zitiernetze allows researchers to identify influential papers, which are often central in the network and
Various metrics are employed to study zitiernetze, including centrality measures (like degree centrality, betweenness centrality, and
