As some citizens with limited information literacy often express their questions vaguely when interacting with a chatbot, it is necessary to improve the contextual understanding and reasoning ability of government chatbots (G-chatbots). This goal can be achieved through the optimisation of the matching between question, answer and context. By incorporating the Relational Graph Convolutional Networks (R-GCNs) and fuzzy logic, this study proposes a multi-turn dialogue model that introduces a re-question mechanism and a subgraph matching algorithm. The experiment results show that the model can improve the contextual reasoning ability of G-chatbots by about 10% and generate answers in a more explainable way. This study innovatively integrates a question–answer–context matching approach, re-question mechanism into the MTRF-G-chatbot model, reducing barriers to citizens’ access to government services and enhancing contextual reasoning abilities.","PeriodicalId":54796,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science","volume":"55 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142251276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Concerned with the cognitive information that resides within humans’ and animals’ minds, this article aims to explore the knowings (having knowledge or awareness about something) of all multispecies family members. Building upon an information experience approach, the research process consisted of experiential material gathering with multispecies ethnography, followed by phenomenological reflections and writing. Findings are organised into three main sections: animal knowing, human knowing and their engaged knowing. The cognitive information presented in this study is sometimes unconventional, yet innovative within the field of Information Science. the article contributes to the cognitive view of information by showing how diverse information from both humans and animals interweaves to shape a harmonious understanding in everyday life and provides implications for information research, practice and design.","PeriodicalId":54796,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science","volume":"293 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142221790","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Focusing on the technical field of artificial intelligence (AI), this study constructs a set of 47 features from seven dimensions and uses feature selection and machine learning models to accurately predict how research papers impact AI technology.

Five-Metrics is one of the most active research fields in China’s library and information science (LIS), and the research on Five-Metrics in China is characterised by the diversity of disciplines. Quantitative analysis of interdisciplinary research in Five-Metrics of China reveals the disciplinary origin and knowledge structure of Chinese Five-Metrics, grasps the interdisciplinary patterns and laws of Five-Metrics, and helps promote international exchange and cooperation, innovation and development of Five-Metrics research in the context of open science. Based on the theory of knowledge flow, this study uses a combination of citation analysis, mathematical modelling analysis, social network analysis and statistical analysis. We study the interdisciplinary degree of Five-Metrics based on 20,528 publications and corresponding 207,530 reference records and 111,823 citing article records, using a combination of python, gephi, origin and other tools. The results show that the interdisciplinarity of Five-Metrics publications and knowledge flow at the macroscopic level is high, and interdisciplinarity of the cited references and citing articles of Five-Metrics is higher. At the microscopic level, there is a wide gap in the interdisciplinarity of Five-Metrics in different disciplines. In addition, this study identifies three interdisciplinary knowledge flow patterns of Five-Metrics of China.

The study considers the influence of the citation time window on accumulating citations and investigates the source of citation advantage for high interdisciplinarity papers. Empirical findings reveal a U-shaped curve relationship between the interdisciplinarity of papers and their citation frequency. Papers with high interdisciplinarity do enjoy a citation advantage, which primarily stems from the attention and citations from distant disciplinary papers and multidisciplinary journals. However, it often takes a longer time for the value of interdisciplinary papers to be recognised. Based on these findings, the study discusses the necessity and effectiveness of incentives for interdisciplinary research and provides recommendations for evaluating and managing interdisciplinary research.","PeriodicalId":54796,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141780454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research around data, information and people for achieving success in different SDGs shows how important ESD is. Research also shows that the library and information sector can contribute in many ways to achieve the UN SDGs. Therefore, it is crucial that a strategic approach is taken to embed the concepts of SDGs and their targets and indicators, and the corresponding data and information required to achieve those, within the information science curricula, so that the SDGs form the foundation of information science education, research and professional activities. This article aims to develop a research agenda for education and research in information sciences for promoting and achieving success in different SDGs. First, taking the approach of a metareview, this article shows the trends, as well as challenges, of research and development activities around information for sustainable development. This article demonstrates how the different activities of the LIS (Library and Information Science) sector can be mapped onto some specific targets and indicators of different SDGs, and based on this, it develops an agenda for education and research in information for sustainable development. The research agenda will lead to the development of new information sciences curricula to accommodate the SDGs for training and research in specific LIS activities. This article discusses how the research agenda will also lead to the development of trained professionals in information science for promoting the concepts, and achieving the targets, of the SDGs for a sustainable future.","PeriodicalId":54796,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science","volume":"422 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141780452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, collecting labelled data for training sentiment analysis models in a specific domain can be challenging in practical applications. One promising solution to this ‘cold-start’ problem is domain adaptation, which leverages labelled data from a related source domain to train a model for the target domain. A critical yet often neglected aspect in prior research is the measurement of similarity between the source and target domains, a factor that greatly impacts the success of domain adaptation. To fill this gap, we propose a novel measure that combines semantic, syntactic and lexical features to assess corpus-level similarity between two domains. Our experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves high precision (0.91) and recall (0.75), outperforming traditional methods. Moreover, our proposed measure can assist new domain products in selecting the most suitable training data set for their sentiment analysis tasks.","PeriodicalId":54796,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141780374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The two discoveries, specifically ‘Inference of Population Structure Using Multilocus Genotype Data (IPSUMGD)’ and ‘Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA)’, are both significant academic publications in their respective fields. Although they share similar underlying concepts, they originate from different disciplines. Our objective is to analyse similarities and differences in the knowledge foundation and diffusion trajectories of these simultaneous discoveries, IPSUMGD and LDA, to further determine if a general pattern of successful innovation diffusion exists. The results indicate that the considerable similarity in the core ideas of IPSUMGD and LDA may be attributed to a strong disciplinary connection in their knowledge foundation, leading to overlapping diffusion processes. However, the divergence in thematic volatility and discipline distribution implies that IPSUMGD and LDA occupy distinct and independent diffusion spaces, which is crucial for their success. The citation cascade networks highlight the unique diffusion patterns of IPSUMGD and LDA, with IPSUMGD originating from the emergence of multiple high-impact nodes and LDA evolving through iterative innovation. The main path analysis reveals that both articles feature several key nodes in their diffusion processes, and the original authors have made substantial contributions to their long-term citation trajectories.","PeriodicalId":54796,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science","volume":"72 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141786067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is important to assess its effect on scholarly attention and academic influence, particularly in light of the evolving reading habits among researchers. In this study, we empirically estimate the impact of ‘being selected as a cover paper’ on scholarly online attention (proxied by altmetric score) and academic influence (measured by citation counts). This analysis is based on a data set comprising 25,238 papers selected from 10 high-impact materials science journals (with journal impact factors exceeding 10) published between 2016 and 2020. Our findings indicate a positive correlation between ‘being selected as a cover paper’ and scholarly online attention, while its impact on academic influence is insignificant. Our results remain robust even when excluding the top 1% mostly cited papers, employing the negative binomial model and considering various time windows for estimation. Heterogeneity analysis indicates that the impact of ‘being selected as a cover paper’ on scholarly online attention holds across nearly all topics, consistent with the baseline result. In addition, online platforms, such as Twitter and News outlets, exhibit a higher frequency of sharing research featured as cover papers. We offer suggestive evidence that ‘being selected as a cover paper’ is not solely contingent on its quality. These findings contribute to the development of a precise, dynamic and multi-dimensional evaluation framework, crucial for navigating the revolution of science communication.","PeriodicalId":54796,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141780451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
