Finding Attractive Research Areas for Young Scientists
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
The selection of the research area is very vital for new researchers. One of the major issues for researchers is the selection of the domain of research on which he/she can carry out research. This case is very vital on the grounds that it decides the future of the researchers in that research area. Finding hot and attractive research areas is not considered in the relevant literature of Scientometrics. In this regard, the correct decision of the selection of the research domain helps the researchers to show better performance as well gain a good academic career. The main aim of this research study is to figure out the attractive research areas for the researchers, especially who are at the starting stage of their research life. To the best of our knowledge, this research area is still very limited due to limited work done in this area. So in order to distinguish the attractive research field for the new researchers, new rising fields are identified by applying the well-known g-index, which is widely used for finding the top authors in academic networks. In addition, we compute diverse, relevant features of the research fields which help us to identify top research area. The results demonstrate that the proposed methodology is capable to recommend the attractive research fields for potential future research work. An extensive empirical analysis has been carried out using the widely used academic database of DBLP.
