@inproceedings{tilley2007citation, abstract = {In this paper formal concept analysis (FCA) is used as a means to analyse afield of research using published academic papers as its input. In particular, results are presented based on a case study of 47 academic papers in a scientific field of study. The analysis includes inferences about the field of study based on the domain background knowledge derived from the ISO12207 software engineering standard. Additionally, a number of alternative classifications based on the target application language and the reported application size are introduced. FCA reveals useful insights about the nature of the subject matter: identifying fruitful areas of research as well as producing details about characteristics of the community under examination.}, author = {Tilley, T. and Eklund, P.}, booktitle = {18th International Workshop on Database and Expert Systems Applications (DEXA)}, doi = {10.1109/DEXA.2007.59}, interhash = {52fc9589299b48707ab9f22f995ecd17}, intrahash = {5544eac0fd55b4862dde20cad8edc11a}, issn = {1529-4188}, month = sep, pages = {545--550}, publisher = {IEEE Computer Society}, title = {Citation Analysis using Formal Concept Analysis: A case study in Software Engineering}, url = {http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=4312953&tag=1}, year = 2007 }
