Producing the RF to paper journal crossmap.

 

  • On the TFGUI window, select Journals > XMAP RF to paper journal The crossmap will appear as a separate window.
  • Adjust the size of the circles by using the annotate menu on the crossmap figure. Selecting *2 will double the size of the circles, selecting /2 will have the size of the circles.

 

Below shows a crossmap from the mad_cow example. The list below describes the elements of the research front to paper journal crossmap:

 

  1. Plot area The plot shows a matrix of circles. Given research front (RF) at position i on the y axis, and paper journal j on the x position. The circle at position (i,j) on the map is proportional to the number of papers in RF i that are published in paper journal j. Large concentrations of circles indicate a group of research fronts using a group of paper journals, although there is typically a lot of overlap of usage.
  2. Research front dendrogram The dendrogram and horizontal placement of research fronts is identical to the research fronts in the timeline.
  3. Research front labels Same placement as the reserarch fronts in the timeline.
  4. Paper coupling dendrogram This is the dendrogram from journal coupling clustering. General groups of related paper journals can be discerned as separate subtrees of the dendrogram.
  5. Paper journal labels The paper journals are printed as they are given in the WOS file.
  6. crosshairs Clicking in the plot area will cause a horizonal line and vertical line to appear. These crosshairs can be used to find the labels associated with specific circles of interest on the map.
  7. annotate menu This menu contains annotation tools for resizing circles, adjusting plot margins for most readable labels, and for zooming to interesting parts of the crossmap.
  8. webpage menu This control can be used to generate a webpage containing the crossmap.
