Discovering emergent connections in quantum physics research via dynamic word embeddings

Felix Frohnert, Xuemei Gu, Mario Krenn, Evert van Nieuwenburg·November 10, 2024

Summary

Quantum physics research expands, leading to specialized subgroups. Dynamic word embeddings offer a novel approach to predict concept co-occurrence in scientific literature, capturing implicit relationships and enabling accurate predictions. Unlike knowledge graphs, this method can be learned unsupervised, providing a broader spectrum of information. It demonstrates effectiveness in modeling conceptual relationships in quantum physics, suggesting a more flexible and informative way to understand scientific literature compared to traditional knowledge graph representations.
